    I installed Mandriva 2008.1 alpha 2, and previously 2008.2 alpha 1, and Mandriva 2008 and Mandriva 2008 Flash successfully on an Everex gPC TC2502. (This is the $200 Wal-Mart machine that comes with gOS.)
    2008.2 Alpha2 runs beautifully, with no incidents. (Ubuntu will not boot. DSL will not boot. gOS 2.0 beta will not boot.)

    The machine runs as if Mandriva was made for it.
    It uses a VIA N700 Unichrome Pro chipset, which is quite fast (GLXgears = 1000), but compliz does not run. Remote printing and scanning and nfs work perfectly.
    Nice work!
    Thank you.
