tlug: Linux on NEC PC98s



Hi,

Don't have the exact thread name, however it is neccecary to use a specially 
modified kernel as Jonathan pointed out for older PC9801/9821 archs.  There 
is a 2.2.x based kerenel along with a 2.1.x based one, and Plamo Linux has 
PC98 support (Kernel, packages, Installer, the whole speil).  Linux is also 
supported on the newer PC98-NX desktops which are fully AT compatible 
(Although they do have a lot of custon s***).

Hope this answers any questions that you may have.

Austin K. Kurahone

NOTE:NEC is not my favorate brand of hardware since the custom stuff they 
include usually ends up causing problems. (Sis Grpahic chipsets, winmodems, 
and other weirdness).
