RE: Oracle on iSeries

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

As of now, if I run Linux it runs underneath OS/400.  If I ipl the OS/400 
partition it ipl's the linux partition.  As a separate partition you, 
should be able to IPL the OS/400 partition and not affect the linux 
partition.

There are pro's and con's to either method.  I forget what they are 
though.

What's the difference between current Linux support and "a true Linux 
LPAR"?
