SuSE Linux claims to support all IBM Netfinity machines including the
high
end 7000 M10 quad Xeon model with hardware raid. I have had a lot of
trouble
getting one of these to run in multiprocesor mode. I saw a claim on a
blurb-
sheet recently from SuSE claiming they had tested their distribution and
certified it on the Netfinity machines but there were not many details.
I have sent a question off to SuSE asking for these details and I will
post to the SMP and Raid groups when I get a response from them.
SuSE are at http://www.suse.com.
