Hi Nimish:
We have been using Scientific Linux for a while. It have been working well so far basically. But we never compiled 8K point FFT, and we experienced strange behavior at the very beginning. cheers homin jiang of ASIAA On Mon, 01 Oct 2012 12:18:21 -0700, [email protected] wrote: > Send casper mailing list submissions to > [email protected] [1] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://calmail.berkeley.edu/manage/list/listinfo/[email protected] [2] > > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [email protected] [3] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [email protected] [4] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of casper digest..." > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

We currently use CentOS on our machine that we use for running CASPER toolflow for Roach 2. We are in the process of procuring a new machine and our institute recommends using Scientific Linux (SL) instead of CentOS. I understand that they are clones of RHE and SL is a closer clone than CentOS. I am also told that anything that runs on CentOS will run on SL. I want to know if anyone has been using the CAPSER toolflow successfully on SL or ran into any problems? We need to make this decision soon and it would be very helpful to know of others' experience.
