Re: AS/400 Conversion

LeLux:

I am not all that versed in Linux, but I had always thought that RedHat & 
SUSE are not versions of Linux, but provide you with Linux & who can help 
you with installing & running Linux.  I am pretty sure that Redhat or SUSE 
does not do anything to Linux, so you should be able to use whoever you 
want to supply you with Linux.

The COMMON conference in May is focusing on Linux, so I will be getting 
more education on Linux then. 

I would like to know what anyone is doing with Linux on the I-Series.  IBM 
sure has put a lot of money behind Linux and are really pushing the 
product.

AS/400 Conversion






Perhaps this is a bit off topic, but certainly a good place to start since 

'MAPICS was ported to Linux'.

My question is:  Has anyone installed Linux on an AS/400 without going the 

IBM/RedHat route?

I know that SUSE can run on an ISeries, perhaps any RISC model?

Interested in any experiences that you may want to share.

Thanks in advance for your comments....james
