| 64bit Linux on the Asus Z81ka, Gentoo Live DVD RR64 |

| Ubuntu AMD64 on Z81ka |
| Installation
process was ok, not flawless but defently not difficult

| Suse 64bit 9.3 |

To top it off Suse actually made my life more difficult than Debian and the commercial aspect made me queesy. so i prepaired myself for the real install... |
