About LinkBacksyes, its the DG945GCLF board. I have tried many others from jetway to msi and I have yet to find a board that works. This intel board is the only one ive found that works well on a consistent basis.

I'm currently running a (real) NIC in the solitary PCI slot. That leaves me looking for a place to connect a second NIC.
Until the major distros catch up with this board, my options would seem to be limited. From my experience in the past, given the choice between a USB-Ethernet NIC and food poisoning, I'd have to seriously consider the food poisoning...
Jim--
Thanks for the confirmation; I appreciate it. I think the D510MO board is going to be very popular for appliances once the distros support it... More horsepower for less power, heat, and $$ -- as long as you're not doing fancy video, it looks good.
I welcome suggestions -- I'm trying to dig up an extra D945GCLF2D board to use in the interim.

Please refer to this thread.
After installing Untangle 7.1.1 and booting into safe video mode, in step 4 when I enter:
apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
I get the error:
E: Couldn't find package linux-headers-2.6.26-l-untangle-686
thank you for helping us out! (I've backed up to a D945GCLF2D board)

Did you follow the Step 3 to add 2 lines as the followings to the file at "/etc/apt/sources.list"?

I believe I did -- but I scrounged a D945GCLF board and reloaded the hard disk from scratch. That box is up and running. I'll revisit the D510MO board in a few months!
Thank you for your work supporting this board with the old(er) kernel.

I'll try the 7.2 Beta (with new drivers) probably this weekend
--bob in rainy silicon valley
Whee!!
The 7.2 Beta release recognizes the onboard NIC on the D510MO board. I'm running with it now, and the cheezy Realtek NIC. I picked up an Intel NIC today, but due to a brain fart, didn't get one with a short bracket. Also have an Intel dual-port on the way.
After install, I started it up in video safe mode, so I don't know if all the kinks have been worked out of that part of things.
I like the changes in 7.2 Beta -- the small wording changes make sense. And it works on the mobo I wanted to run it on!
We'll see how it flies!
bob in still rainy silicon valley -- it was crystal clear yesterday, though!
That is the way I resolve any Realtek problems. I disable the onboard NIC and install a dual-port Intel server NIC - problem solved. I have used it on both Atom and Intel dual-core motherboards with success.
This has been an excellent Intel board for me:

Just spotted a new Zotac that is ~$30 less expensive than the Intel. Doesn't specify the onboard LAN manufacturer and uses PCI-e expansion slot instead of PCI.
