My project was to build a small eco ( low power consumption ) pc with vm-s on it for different things like: small gaming windows vm, router, nas with plex media server and a web server
This was based on the fact that the devices can be virtualized in a passthrough way. There is only one AM1 board with low power consumption that supports IOMMU but is from MSI - found it too late. Does anybody want my AM1B-ITX mb ? :)) |

Completely disappointed by the ASRock technical team reply. They sent me a screenshot with a windows guest vm hosted on vmware : ))))
Hoping for a real solution was a stupid thing to believe. I am throwing the mb in the drawer where it belongs. Going for the MSI AM1I. I quote: " Dear Szomoru, Thanks for contacting ASRock. For AM1B-ITX, it originally supports Microsoft® Windows® 10 64-bit / 8.1 32-bit / 8.1 64-bit / 8 32-bit / 8 64-bit / 7 32-bit / 7 64-bit / XP 32-bit / XP 64-bit. Therefore, the AMD-Vi function is based on Windows OS. We couldn't make sure if it can use in Linux OS. we did the test in Windows 10 to create a virtual machine. The virtual machine can work properly. Please refer to the screen picture in attached file. Thank you! "

If they, CPU and MB, support virtualization in Windows then there is absolutely no reason they can't pass off to any other OS. Hint: Good luck with that MSI Am1l https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IOMMU-supporting_hardware#Motherboards_2 |
