But before installing ubuntu, i didnt want to install a floppy drive, they bring back bad memories, so i had to burn a CD and boot from it to update the motherboard

If you have this old motherboard and want a firmware update to the latest 2003 version, download this tusi-m package, Inside you will find the file DOS-BOOT-WINDOWS-ME.iso, burn it to cd and boot from it.

Wait until you are dropped to a DOS prompt
D:
Aflash
When presented with choices chose 2 and hit enter
When asked for the location of the file enter the following
D:\1018tm.005
You are done, you now need to exit by hitting escape then restarting the computer

With this out of the way, i installed Ubuntu, but then found out about the missfortunate 1.1 USB posts, and therefore, it was disqualified, at least i had pleanty of fun making the case and the external heat sinks…..
