Hi,
As I know Cell/B.E. is based on IBM's Power architecture.
SL5x is now available only for Intel x86 and x86_64 architectures.
So there is no ready-to-use solution for you here.

Dear SL users and developers,
Could you please tell whether SL 5.1 distribution supports the
multi-core Cell Broadband Engine processor.
There is a need to choose and install OS for IBM BladeCenter QS21
which is based on Cell/B.E. processor. On the IBM web-site (
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/power/cell ,tab downloads) it
is said that IBM BladeCenter QS21 is the only RHEL5.1-supported
execution platform and a modified version of the Fedora 7 Linux kernel
is provided for Cell/B.E. hardware.
I suppose that SL5.1 is RHEL5.1, that is why it is safe install SL5.1
on this machine.
Could you please verify.
I will appreciate if anyone tells how to determine whether SL5.1
supports Cell/B.E. processor.
Thank you.
Please reply in a shortest time possible.
