Atom cpu boards are hard to find and they are expensive.
I am considering buying the newer Celeron (J1800 and J1900 CPUs) based mini ITX boards from Biostar/Gigabyte. Reading the reviews on various e-stores, people have faced issues installing the OS.
Please share your Linux experience in case you have installed Linux on these boards.

Hmmm. I haven't installed on these boards, but have been experimenting with an embedded terminal with a J1900 series CPU(currently running Ubuntu, should move it to fedora soon). So should be quite straightforward. However, if you are having issues, you could bring the board over to my place, and I can assist with getting Linux onto it. Just let me know a day or 2 in advance so that we can figure out a time when i will be free and at home.

Thanks for the offer, appreciate it. In the reviews that I read, people had issues with the BIOS not allowing Windows 7 installation; something to do with secure boot stuff.
Anyway, I will download the manual and see if the BIOS can be set to Legacy Mode, if allowed then installation of any Linux distro should be straight forward.
