They have contracts with both commercial enterprise Linux vendors, and thus money on the line. They have to support them first, officially. > Any hands-on knowledge/experience? Probably nobody here with hands-on yet. I'd think HP has an evaluation program. Talk to your sales rep. Get one and bang on it. If you can't get Wheezy to work send it back and order more G7s. Or, you could simply have them swap out the mezzanine board for the adapter model you're currently using. I'd assume they didn't change their mini PCIe socket format breaking backward compatibility. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
