I have a MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard and it works great with
FC4. But I think you should specify if the board is AMD or Intel based.
I have read reports of problems with Seagate drives and the Silicon
Image sata controller that is on my board. The SI controller is an
add-on controller, and I chose not to use it to avoid problems. I also
had fun getting the second gigabit controller working. It requires the
sky2 driver which isn't in the standard FC4 kernels. I had to use the
netdev kernels from John Linville,
http://people.redhat.com/linville/kernels/fedora-netdev/. Luckily the
sky2 driver has been merged into the development kernels so it should
just work with FC5.
