If the kernel is there, the distribution matters not. True, the installation will be a bit more difficult if the distribution is not ready for it, Genesi has a patched boot-floppies for debian on the pegasos for example, but it is also possible to install without it. > > the Pegasos is currently admittedly buggy, and they're aiming at bringing > > out a new one before the end of the year (expect more debigging etc before > > it's quite ready). > > AIU they have a firmware upgrade that solves the problems at a > performance hit? Nope, as i understood it, the AmigaONE solved the problem with a firmware upgrade, which worked around the problem, while the pegasos guys did go for a hardware patch. Friendly, Sven Luther
