The GA-586ID officially only worked with a P54C/P54CM pair.

S1462 is a socket 5 board.

It's based on the Intel 430NX chipset described at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_chipsets#Pentium_chipsets which says this chipset was introduced in 1994 (although some motherboards based on this chipset may have been single-CPU), and lists.de.freebsd.org/archive/de-bsd-questions/… lists some other SMP dual CPU motherboards from the same era. | |
