I recently bought ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe, and installed
NetBSD/amd64-current.

- nForce4 IDE and SATA work with auvia(4)
  (I don't know RAID feature and SATA II feature)
- Sil 3114 SATA works with satalink(4)
  (I don't know RAID feature)
- Audio works with auich(4)
  8ch playback shouldn't work.  auich doesn't support S/PDIF.
- IEEE 1394 host is recognized though I don't have any 1394 devices
- Marvell ethernet works with skc(4)
* nForce4 ethernet does not work
* The default INSTALL and GENERIC kernel caused lots of "lost
  interrupt" messages for nForce4 SATA drives.  A kernel without
  MPBIOS seems to work.

This board would be good if you are patient with non-working
nForce4 ethernet.
