gentoo server

[knoxville]

hi,

does anybody know if i can get gentoo to work fully (no nic problems and so on..) on this board?, processor is a xeon 2.4ghz

and what do i have to watch out for when im setting up a server?, anything more than if i was setting up a desktop machine (no X on server of course)

maybe someone has already set up a similar system?, ive already searched the forums for xeon and hyperthreading and read the posts, this thread describes something similar i think

https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=84272&highlight=xeon

so if you know anything let me know

thanks in advance
