Hi Oracle Linux users,
You can probably guess from the title what the question is:
Does anyone know if Oracle Linux (the Unbreakable variety I think that is) comes in a
SPARC release or, if not, will there be one some time soon ?
Many thanks,
P;):D:b:
Why not contact Oracle? Also, I would not give that company any more money than you have to. They are leaches.
Oracle Linux is nothing but a recompiled/repackaged RedHat Enterprise Linux with Oracle "thingies". The below site contains a full list of supported hardware:
Certified Hardware
Unfortunately, I did not see any SPARC based hardware. I don't think OEL supports SPARC as they have it even before SUN merged. As far as RedHat is concerned, it sells Linux only for Intel and Power architectures. Not sure, but RedHat Linux 7.6 (not RHEL) was the last one to have SPARC supported.
You may be able to find some discontinued distros like Aurora SPARC Linux based on Fedora Core 3.
What is your intention by the way?
