HI Vince,

Which board format is the SBC? I assume that it is a full size PICMG with
the ISA bus and PCI bus too or is it a half size?

You can't plug it into a standard PC as you will then get bus contention as
each tries to control the bus. You need to use a passive back plane. Check
out www.boser.co.uk as they do some low cost back planes that should do the
trick.

I use a PICMG board for my HA server and a 6 slot PCI/ISA backplane.

I picked up a couple of Celeron full size SBC cards from ebay and wondered
if anyone had any experience mounting them in a case. What I want to do is
mount them both in my servers case and wondered if I could just plug them
into free ISA slots on my servers motherboard to power them? Can you plug
these things into a normal motherboard? Or do they need a backplane.

Vince
