Distributions Supported on Itanium 2-Based Workstations

Hewlett-Packard has certified Red Hat Advanced Workstation 2.1 and current errata (errata kernel 2.4.18-e.25) on Itanium 2-based workstations.

You can order Red Hat Advanced Workstation 2.1 at http://www.software.hp.com. The HP Enablement Kit for Linux should ship with your Red Hat CDs and is also available at http://www.software.hp.com. The enablement kit prepares your system for operating system installation and prompts you to insert Red Hat CDs when ready.

Red Hat provides operating system documentation.

IMPORTANT Do not discard the Red Hat registration card packaged with the Red Hat CDs. Red Hat requires this card to support or replace software.

Documentation for HP's Enablement Kit for Linux, including the kit’s CD booklet, Release Notes, and the Support Note for Red Hat Advanced Workstation 2.1 Operating System on Itanium-2 Based Workstations come with your system. These documents, along with the SystemImager manual, are also available at http://www.docs.hp.com/linux as well as in the enablement kit CD's /docs directory.
