[parisc-linux] Debian install

[Maxime Woznicki]

Hello,

I would like to know if debian hppa port supports these differents 
servers (I've searched in the supported hardware page but it isn't 
really clear for me) :
* HP9000  L2000
* RP-4440
* RP5430
* RP5470

If these servers are supported , can they be used as production servers ?

Thx for help.

Max W.

yes

pa8800 support isn't stable yet.
I have several rp3440-4 boxes setup for developement but we haven't
gotten to the bottom of the sshd segfault (can't ssh into the box).
I believe it's an I-cache flushing issue but haven't had time
to track it further down. Thanks to Randolph/Carlos for getting it that far.
We have determined it's not an I/O coherency issue.

Offhand, I'm not sure what these are.
I expect they are later versions of L-class but aren't sure.

What does "supported" mean to you?
You have to do your own testing/support on these boxes unless you
want to fund one of the independent developers to do that for you.

FWIW, The most stable recent kernels seem to be 2.6.8.1 (Debian) or
self-built 2.6.10-pa11 (IIRC).

hth,
