Hello --
I recently acquired an HP zx6000 dual Itanium-2 workstation, and so I was
very pleased to find Scientific Linux (version 4.1) available for the IA-64
architecture. But according to the SL news archive, SL 4.1 for ia64 was
released 08-Aug-2005, and it appears none of the other SL 4.x or SL 5.x
releases run on ia64.
Are there many SL users running on ia64 ? Are there plans to continue SL
support for this architecture ?
Many thanks,
-- Jim

My SL 4.1-ia64 install went smoothly, and so far my only regret is finding
that the Open Motif X11 window manager (mwm) "experimental" version 2.2
(openmotif-2.2.3-9.RHEL4.1.ia64.rpm) was chosen for SL 4.1 (as well as for
RHEL) and not the Open Group's officially supported and more stable
"openmotif-2.1.30" release.
