One more correction. The SUSE distribution is not "UnitedLinux 1," it is SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8. There are no "UL" distributions, that's just the name of the consortium (which will soon be disbanded anyway because SCO won't drop out). Each distribution provider in the consortium uses that as the base for their own product, which retains their usual branding, i.e., SUSE, Turbolinux, Conectiva, etc.
Since you specified that the distribution must be available in both 31-bit and 64-bit, I won't bring up Slackware for S/390. :) Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Xose Vazquez Perez Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 6:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: distributions David Boyes wrote: > Some vendor applications are not yet certified on SLES 8.

So, there are only 3 possibilities: UL_1, RHEL_3 or Debian_3. I hope that somebody works on Fedora, because in theory all work was done in RHEL and it should be 'easy'.
