I just purchased a Solek 75drv5-c motherboard. One of the reasons I 
settled on this board were for it's insanley fast POST to OS load times. 
This board gives me a LILO boot screen in 1.5 seconds flat. The award 
BIOS logo is just a blur. Compare this to my 20-25 sec tyan motherbaord 
post and bios check. Works great with debian too, it's a VIA KT333 chipset.
