Not really. Redhat and SUSE get named explicitly.
Edit: Ubuntu, too.
- ghaff 6y agoWhat I meant was that it was really all about SUSE originally. Red Hat came later and AFAIK Ubuntu has never really been a material presence on IBM mainframes. No one else has ever mattered with respect to commercial Linux distributions that would run on a mainframe.
- Proven 6y agoThey indeed do, except that's complete bullshit. Wikipedia says first Ubuntu release was in 2004. In 1999 the first on Z were SLES and Turbolinux, and after that Red Hat came on board. Red Hat wasn't liked back then because they resisted standardization (see history of LSB).
