Sweet! I had a look at a friend's lspci for your machine - it's a nice
one!

For your 2.6.20.3 kernel you can enable 64 bit memory addressing for
further optimization. The bus is still 32 bit, but memory will work
better this way...

Also, you will need to look at SATA - it's been broken out into a
seperate subdirectory in the 2.6.20 series, and you will need to enable
the intel SATA driver for your machine, and do scsi for your drives.

you can do away with atapi.

look also at enableing netfilter in the networking options for
firewalling - in the 2.6.20 kernel you will need to enable that in the
config as that's been moved as well.

Ciao,

Dave
