I've been asked by a few people, which port would run on
various IBM RS/6000's,
this list is an attempt to clarify that.
PLEASE NOTE: Just because a machine is in this list,
doesn't mean the port
currently runs on it. It just means that if it ever will,
thats the port it
would be under, or if you wanted to try to port to one, that
would be the port
you would want to use. Supported machines are marked with a
*.
IBM 4 digit code, and port
7006 *rs6000 (very preliminary support, not fully
operable yet)
7007 rs6000
7009 rs6000
7011 rs6000
7012 rs6000
7013 rs6000
7014 rs6000
7015 rs6000
7017 ofppc
6020 *prep
7020 *prep
7248 *prep
7249 *prep
7024 *prep
7025-F30/F40 *prep
7025-F50 ofppc
7026-H10 prep (probably works, never tested)
7026 ofppc (all the rest other than H10)
7028 ofppc
7043-140 *prep
7043-150 ofppc
7043-260 ofppc
7043-240 (supposedly prep, possibly ofppc)
7044 ofppc
7046 ofppc
Quick Ebay hint, if its IBM, and it's a black machine, it
would be ofppc.
As for Motorola machines, the story gets alot more complex.
Because most of
the Motorola machines shipped with multiple versions of
available firmware, the
same model machine might require a different port to boot
on, depending on what
firmware it shipped with, and even what revision of that
firmware it shipped
with. Most motorola machines would be covered by either
prep, mvmeppc, or
ofppc. (prep being the most likely)
