The J/PSI cluster (#141 on the new TOP500 list) is indeed running
Scientific Linux 4.4. Perhaps the reason it shows as Linux is that
when one uses 'uname -a' it does not show much detail. I am pretty
sure Don submitted our results to the TOP500 and he may be able to
explain how this data field is populated.

The J/PSI cluster at Fermilab is listed as running "Lunix",
and I believe that it is running Scientific Lunix.
Don and/or Amitoj can comment further...

I'm at SC09 this week. Awesome hardware, awesome people. The
Top500 for the month was announced, Linux runs on 446+ of them,
no surprise there.
What is a surprise is the nonappearance of Scientific Linux on
this list:

I would assume SL would be running on many, if not most, of the
big iron X86 array systems. I would also assume more celebrity
SL deployments means more funding for our heros at Fermi. Is
this a "don't ask, don't tell" thing?
