BeOS, Intel, Hardware, Requirements, logic, mother, board, compatible
This is a semi-impossible question to answer, given that there are a huge number of motherboards in existence based on the Intel Architecture.

In general, the BeOS will support most logic boards which are based on processors and core logic chip sets supported by the BeOS, so see the answers to those questions instead.

To supplement that, here is a list of the few logic boards we've tested the BeOS on. If you want something more definitive than a processor/chip set combination, this should be a helpful, if limited list.

Note: This list is preliminary. The following is not a commitment to ship the BeOS for these (or any other) configurations, and Be is not responsible for any purchasing decisions made on this information. Please re-read that sentence.

We may also (and likely will) add items to this list before we ship the BeOS for Intel, or in future releases, so don't panic if your favorite isn't here. We know this list is not complete!

Tyan Tahoe (dual Pentium II)
Tyan S-1692DL (dual Pentium II)
SuperMicro P6DKF Dual Pentium II motherboard
Intel Providence motherboard
Intel Portland motherboard
Intel Atlanta motherboard
