- I run Linux on to AMD386DX machines a 33 and a 40. The 386DX40 has been
- running Linux continuously for over a month with the only reboots being
- for OS upgrades. It's also often fairly busy as its an amateur radio
- network node running a modified KA9Q with all the amateur radio stuff
- enabled.
-
- Reminds me: ka9q.4 for linux runs all the radio stuff fine just for reference.
