	Luku 2. Laitteistovaatimukset

Debian does not impose hardware requirements beyond the requirements of the Linux kernel and the GNU tool-sets. Therefore, any architecture or platform to which the Linux kernel, libc, gcc, etc. have been ported, and for which a Debian port exists, can run Debian. Please refer to the Ports pages at https://www.debian.org/ports/s390/ for more details on S/390 architecture systems which have been tested with Debian GNU/Linux.

Tässä luvussa ei kerrota kaikkia laitealustan S/390 tuettuja laitteistokokoonpanoja, vaan kerrotaan yleisempää tietoa ja annetaan viitteet joista lisätietoa löytyy.

2.1.1. Tuetut laitealustat

Debian GNU/Linux 13 supports 9 major architectures and several variations of each architecture known as ”flavors”.

Suoritinperhe	Nimi Debianissa	Suoritinarkkitehtuuri	Malli
AMD64 & Intel 64	amd64
Intel x86-koneet	i386	default x86 machines	default
Intel x86-koneet	i386	Xen PV domains only	xen
ARM	armel	Marvell Kirkwood and Orion	marvell
ARM with hardware FPU	armhf	multiplatform	armmp
64bit ARM	arm64
64bit MIPS (little-endian)	mips64el	MIPS Malta	5kc-malta
		Cavium Octeon	octeon
		Loongson 3	loongson-3
32bit MIPS (little-endian)	mipsel	MIPS Malta	4kc-malta
		Cavium Octeon	octeon
		Loongson 3	loongson-3
Power Systems	ppc64el	IBM POWER8 or newer machines
64bit IBM S/390	s390x	IPL VM-lukijalta ja DASD:ltä	generic

This document covers installation for the S/390 architecture using the Linux kernel. If you are looking for information on any of the other Debian-supported architectures take a look at the Debian-Ports pages.

2.1.2. zSeries and System z machine types

The minimum required z/Architecture processor type is z196. The most current information about IBM's Linux support can be found at the Linux on System z® page on developerWorks.

2.1.3. PAV and HyperPAV

PAV and HyperPAV are supported transparently, multipathing is not needed to take advantage of these storage system features. Be sure to configure the devices during DASD device selection. The alias devices will not be offered neither for formatting, partitioning nor direct use.

2.1.4. Moniprosessorijärjestelmät

Multiprocessor support — also called ”symmetric multiprocessing” or SMP — is available for this architecture. Having multiple processors in a computer was originally only an issue for high-end server systems but has become common in recent years nearly everywhere with the introduction of so called ”multi-core” processors. These contain two or more processor units, called ”cores”, in one physical chip.

The standard Debian 13 kernel image has been compiled with SMP support. It is also usable on non-SMP systems without problems.

2.1.5. Verkkolaitteet

Almost any network interface card (NIC) supported by the Linux kernel should also be supported by the installation system; drivers should normally be loaded automatically.

Tuettujen verkkolaitteiden luettelo on:

Kanavalta kanavalle (CTC) ja ESCON-yhteydet (oikea tai emuloitu)
OSA-2 Token Ring/Ethernet ja OSA-Express Fast Ethernet (ei-QDIO)
OSA-Express QDIO-toimintatilassa, HiperSockets ja Guest-LANs

2.1.6. Oheislaitteet ja muu laitteisto

Pakettien asennus XPRAM:sta tai nauhalta ei ole tuettu tässä laitteistossa. Kaikkien asennettavaksi haluttavien pakettien on oltava käytettävissä DASD:llä tai verkon kautta protokollia NFS, HTTP tai FTP käyttäen.
