VolcanoPeak motherboards should have mBMC on board and provide option
for IPMI-2.0 daughter card. I can get GNU FreeIPMI work on this
board. Can you give me remote access?.

This must have been fixed in CVS.

Tyan S2881 works already. Our SSIF driver for SE7221BK1 requires
testing. Intel SE7520AF2 works too. I don't know about SE7320VP2 and
SE7520JR2 mother boards which are similar to AF. Intel is very
cooperative with us and I can assure you complete IPMI support for
them. 

I always preferred a special skew of SE7520AF2 board (lacks onboard
SCSI controller and other unwanted features, costs around 450$) over
VP and JR for EM64T platform. I prefer SE7230NH1LX (PentiumD) over
SE7221BK1.
