I was poking around ebay today for just the two possible MBs you want
Abit, AN7 or Nf7-s ver2 (must be ver2)
There are several there, but you have to search the Motherboards section with "Socket A" because for some reason they don't come up by part number.

Memory, most CAS2 DDR400 will be fine.

BTW, that 2600+ at that speed is a "Thorton" core which may actually be a Barton with half the cache, so it will likely OC good.

Also, check the last two links in my reply in the below link

4gb RAM will most likely not be possible without a 64bit O.S.
