DrFranken said the following on Tue, 7/22/2014 12:59 PM:
Ubuntu is supported on Power8 only.
There is at least one other open distribution (that escapes memory
retrieval just now)
Nigel Griffiths says Power7 supports Fedora-18-ppc64 and Debian 7. These
won't have all the DLPAR bits and whatnot installed but they load and
run.
