Chapter 12 . Running Yellow Dog Linux 365 A few different versions of Yellow Dog Linux are available that cover a wide spectrum of current and legacy PowerPC hardware: . Yellow Dog Linux 4.0.1 Terra Soft Solutions has released version 4.0.1, which is an enhanced version of Yellow Dog Linux 4.0 with improved support for some of the specialized hardware found in the new Mac Minis and G5 systems. . Yellow Dog Linux 4.0 Version 4.0 was the initial release of Yellow Dog Linux for desktop users who have hardware starting from G3 Blue and White (300 450 MHz) all the way to the dual G5 Power Mac Towers. This is the 32-bit version of its distribution. . Yellow Dog Linux 3.0.1 The prior version (October 1, 2004, and before) of Yellow Dog, which supports the beige G3 hardware (66 MHz) and below product line (Old World ROM) as well as most of the same hardware that Yellow Dog Linux 4.0 supported. . Y-HPC A variation of Yellow Dog based on the 64-bit Fedora Core version of Linux. This version is for high-performance computing and promises to offer high-performance support for Xserve G5s or cluster nodes. This is currently not available as a standalone product, but Terra Soft Solutions will preload it on hardware purchased through the company. Going Forward with Yellow Dog Despite the announcement by Apple that it would be moving its product line from PowerPC to x86 (standard PC) architecture, Terra Soft Solutions plans to continue developing Yellow Dog Linux to run on Power architecture. While Terra Soft remains a top-tier value-added reseller of Apple equipment, it has also begun selling preinstalled Linux systems on hardware from other manufacturers. For high-end server systems, Terra Soft Solutions offers its Y-HPC operating system on IBM 970 BladeCenter 42U rack servers and Mercury Computer XR9 64-bit extended ATX 1U and 4U rack servers. Along with Y-HPC on these machines comes the Y-Imager cluster management software suite, so you can centrally manage multiple Power-based Y-HPC servers. On the workstation end, Terra Soft has partnered with Genesi USA (www.genesippc .com) to sell the Open Desktop Workstation with Yellow Dog Linux pre-installed. The Open Desktop Workstation has a micro-ATX form factor, both Gigabit and 10/100 Ethernet ports, an AGP slot, three low-profile PCI slots, and multiple FireWire and USB ports. The bottom line here is that you can expect Yellow Dog Linux to continue with its support for Power architecture both on server and desktop systems. So, Apple
