I'm not running vserver on a dual athlon, but i am at a dual P200mmx.
I do however have one dual athlon here at work, and it has given us
quite
some trouble, how ever, we do think it was because it became too hot.
We also had trouble with the memory used for this server. In the
beginning
we didnt use reg. memory, so it would only run with a FSB of 200. Later
we got some reg. memory, and then it could sort of run with a FSB of
266.
We are however, because of the trouble with it, only running it at
200FSB
though we are using the reg. memory for it.
The board was a tyan tiger? thunder ? anyway, it is a tyan, and there
are
nothing onboard. no scsi no nothing. The cpu's are 1200MHz athlon MP,
running
at 900 though, because of the 200 MHz FSB.
I dont know any other dual athlon boards. But i do know that you need
COOLING.
