Thread: First linux system; what do you think? Compatabilty & more.


as title states, decided build first system , move ubuntu windows. anyway, here specs:
intel core i5 3570k
asrock *z77* extreme4
kingston 8gb hyperx genesis 1600mhz cl9 (kit of 20)
western digital 2tb caviar black sata iii
intel 120gb ssd 330 series 2.5¨ sata iii bundled desktop kit
(corsair professional hx650w
cooler master haf 912 plus)

would system ubuntu/ linux -compatible?

best of knowledge be, i'd confirm that. info, on compatibility of motherboard linux has been scarce.

do need graphics card?
is there 1 suggest?

missing anything? have suggestions make better?

thanks in advance? i'm not sure how close this...

can post exact model number of motherboard? when google "asrock extreme4" more 1 model (different chipsets, 1 p67, 1 z68 - latter 1 still in stock @ newegg, former isn't).

motherboard chipset important thing in determining compatibility.

hello! i'm trying setup software raid on server, fail @ first step: code: root@sandnabba:/root# mdadm -c /dev/md0 -c512 -l5 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 mdadm: no raid-devices specified. what doing wrong!? are sure -c equivalent --create? also, think need space after -c , -l options, value shouldn't command, or should have = between. @ man pages mdadm , double check spelling.
