you may also use ornery Athlons if you close the SMP bridge on the L5. the
bridge in particular is on the end (you change the .:::: into .:::|  ). i
think this is all changed with the new Tbreds so be sure to mod the correct
bridge for your stepping :P i just googled it and found no info on the
Tbreds so bewarned xp1700s and 1800s are available as tbreds now rather than
the older palomino version for which the mod is known.

theres prolly some boards that will assume the Smp bridge is closed
permenantly.... which make things even easier.
the main chipset these days is the Mpx2 chips - wether they have a
compatibility issue with the RH80 is another thing.

I have no idea on the RH80 thingy - what IS it? bit easier to say if theres
a possible compatibility problem or not if i knew that.... all the googles i
can find reference redhat or linux stuffs. if its that then it shouldnt be a
problem, just compile for SMP.... if you talking about something else please
clarify... :)

Last of all any dual proc board for Athys wont be cheap. id be looking of
the thin end of $400 at minimum for the board anything below that is bonus.
after that you have to buy th chips..... good luck!
Cheers
