8.19 Can I run Linux on an HP9000 system?
Yes! PA-RISC Linux is an activevly developed (and working) native port of Linux to the PA-RISC architecture, which will eventually be merged into the mainstream kernel tree and into commercial distributions. HP officially supports and endorses the project. Currently, PA-RISC Linux supports practically any HP workstation, as well as the A180 server. Support for Ls and Ns is in the works. See: o <http://parisc-linux.org/> MkLinux was successfully ported to PA-RISC 1.1. This project has not been active since '97: o <http://www.openpa.net/other.html#mk> There is also an HP9000/300 Linux port that has been merged with the Linux/m68k kernel tree as of about Linux 2.1.119. The homepage for this effort is: o <http://www.tazenda.demon.co.uk/phil/linux-hp/>
