Installation and Configuration for CERN standard hardware PC models and peripherials.

PLEASE NOTE: Starting from January 2009 we do not test or require new hardware to be compatible with SLC4 anymore: All new models available via CERN stores are tested for compatibility with SLC5 only.

This page describes SLC4 installation and configuration procedures for standard CERN PC hardware models sold by Desktop Support Service ("PC Shop"). While many more types of PC hardware are known to operate correctly while running Scientific Linux CERN 4, only models listed below have been tested by the Linux Support team.

Please note: Lists above describe only PC hardware available for purchase from Desktop Support Service ("PC Shop"). in last 3 years. Previous models are also supported unless stated otherwise on this pages.
