Default Re: Snap Server 2200 - Question

Yes, but rememeber it looks for a HW signature. You can not use the OS on any other HW. And this Applies to the Guardian OS units too, and they are running redhat linux. They look for a special chip on the MB.


Snap went out of their way to prevent the OS from running on anything except snap hardware. It would really be nice if we gould get the Guardian OS on other HW. Being redhat Linux you can atleast see the system files.
