Check out the IBM for iSeries Linux, it only runs on certain models. You also need to be at OS/400 version V5R1 with related PTF (patches). Linux runs in a partition on top of OS/400, it does not run stand-alone. I have been doing seminar for AS/400 groups to let them know the advantages of Linux, and how they can run it on iSeries (AS/400) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- Brian P.
