I had installed FreebSD ver 13-RELEASE-XX on a second HDD with the old mobo, and it took some playing around to get the new mobo to allow me to boot on that drive, but I finally succeeded. FreeBSD runs quite well, with one exception: it does not recognize nor activate the network adapter.

Otherwise, if it's not worth considering, I'm planning on just putting Slackware on my gaming computer.
