Yes! I built my 3.2GHz Prescott (90nm with a 1MB cache) Pentium 4 computer, with 1GB of 3200 DDR and an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro and it boots! Guess what OS it booted first? Knoppix! You can see in the first pic that it correctly recognizes the processor, but doesn’t correctly recognize the HyperThreading and run an SMP kernel. Now all I have to do is move my big 160 GB HD over to the new PC and turn this one into a Linux box.
