Common Hardware Reference Platform
The (I believe) current architecture of RS/6000 (however IBM pleases
to call them).

Maybe there is some technical information on
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver.../chng_c10.html

Yours,
Laurenz Albe

And for what it's worth, this command might be useful:

lscfg -p | grep Arch

At least on current OS levels...

Better might be 'bootinfo -p'; that works on 4.3.3 (and up) as well.

Actually, it depends on which RS/6000. My 43p-240 reports 'rspc'.

I think the older 5248 (model number) was CHRP... as were the apple and motorola
boxen as well.. or maybe they were PREP.. pfft...

What a great idea gone awry.

PReP, unfortunately. the 43P-140 and -240 can only run up to AIX 5.1.

Had it been the 150, that'd have had been CHRP.

The 7248? Also PReP.
