What kinds of Linux systems does BLCR support?

BLCR runs on x86 and x86_64 (Opteron/EM64T) systems running Linux 2.6.x kernels. With the 0.8.2 release, we believe the following to work: • 2.6.0 through 2.6.30 on x86 and x86_64. BLCR 0.7.0 added experimental support for PPC (32-bit), and 0.6.0 added experimental support for PPC64 and ARM. These three architectures have been tested as follows: • 2.6.14 and newer on PPC • 2.6.12 and newer on PPC64 • 2.6.17 and newer on ARM We are interested to hear of your success or failure with these three experimental architectures, especially on kernels older than those we have tested. Note that 0.6.x was the last release series to support 2.4.x kernels.
