General Comments

Report by Pete
He reported that he installed ArcaOS 5.1 on a dual boot configuration with Windows 11. CSM needs to be enabled to boot from CD/DVD on this system.
Installed 5.1.0 in UEFI Boot mode to GPT disk layout
Note: There does not seem to be an option to turn off AMDs version of HyperThreading in the mainboard BIOS. However, that does not seem to cause any problems to date - and it is nice seeing "Processors Intialized: 12" during boot and makes a fast system.
The NVMe drive makes for a very fast boot and applications start more quickly
Onboard AMD/ATI graphics working fine with Panorama driver
Onboard Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 NIC working with MMRE.OS2
The above worked with the drivers included in 5.1.0
Onboard sound: Choice of 2 devices.
I could not get any sound from speakers when booting with
       DEVICE=H:\MMOS2\UNIAUD32.SYS /V
or
       DEVICE=H:\MMOS2\UNIAUD32.SYS /V /A:0
/A:0 selected the AMD mixer device.
Changing that to
       DEVICE=H:\MMOS2\UNIAUD32.SYS /V /A:1
/A:1 selected the Realtek ALC892 mixer device.
Sound works using the Release build in this package [4]
