unless something drastic happened very recently, Linux will NOT
run on any of the DEC 3000 series. for more info, check out

besides, depending on the model you have, that machine is really
old (circa 1993 and 1994) so you won't get any benefits (such as
performance) other than the novelty of running Linux on Alpha.
