Writing from the Alpha running Fedora 8

The screenshot says it all: the Fedora 8 port to the Alpha architecture works fine :) My old EV56 533MHz is happier than ever! The distribution was installed in 32 minutes, and around 50 updates were available via yum directly after the install. All my hardware works, you can see it on my smolt profile.

Alphas ROCK!

    Keen! I don’t suppose it will run on a Multia? ;)

    I don’t think so…this has been a rather problematic machine in the past :p
