ASUS P5LD2 SE

Under construction, mostly finished.

Introduction
This guide assumes that you are using i) a Linux kernel >=2.6.36 and ii) the "amd64" platform. It also assumes that you will read the help text associated with each relevant kernel option.

Processor type and features
These options are not required for your system to work but are desirable. You are free to choose differently.

Serial ATA and Parallel ATA drivers
It's crucial to get this part right. Getting it wrong usually results in failure to mount root filesystem.

Sound card
See Intel High Definition Audio.

Hardware monitoring
I personally don't bother with the Intel Core2 temperature sensor, so it's not listed here.
