Not to mention an Alpha port, as well. I'm more than a little surprised it hasn't been built for s390x, although I would expect your employer would be one of the main forces driving such a build effort. > so if you want a 64-bit Linux, look elsewhere (unless you need to > address more than 2GB of core, I don't know that you'd gain anything > even on a 64-bit host, though). Actually, running a 31-bit version would get me some speed under Hercules, even on an Opteron host. I had thought that the development effort had gotten away from the 31-bit versions (which is why I've got some reservations about getting a Multiprise). -- Jay Maynard, K5ZC http://www.conmicro.cx http://jmaynard.livejournal.com http://www.tronguy.net http://www.hercules-390.org (Yes, that's me!)
