Willie,

Before I give any suggestion, I have one question.  Have you tried just 
changing your Ethernet card?  OpenSuSE, in my experience, is as stable 
as other distributions.

Both Mandriva and Fedora can use the ax25 RPMs.  If you aren't hard over 
on RPMs, ubuntu has a collection of .deb ax25 installation packages.

RAID1 booting shouldn't be a problem with any of the distributions.  
There are How-Tos on howtoforge.com for the distributions cited.

73, Bill
N6WS
