Re: Moving db to linux

This was scary as hell. I haven't had any problems on RH-9, even if
I'm running the lates 2.4 kernel and have patched versions of JFS 
(1.1.4-delopment) 
gcc-3.3.3 (half way to the beast) and perl 5.8.3 
eagerly awaiting Jonathan's report of SuSE SLES 8. Hopefully, that
will be easier.
