Alonbl's ASRock Core 100HT
Following is extension to Gentoo/Linux_Configuration_Common with ASRock Core 100HT configuration.
Same guidelines of minimal module only configuration.

BIOS
- Use only Intel integrated video controller, it saves power, and Intel have better support for Linux.
- Use AHCI SATA not compatible mode.
