Redhat 7.0 for alphaserver (obviously)
here is the cat of /proc/version:
Linux version 2.4.3-12 (root@george.devel.redhat.com) (gcc version 2.96
20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-85)) #1 Fri Jun 8 13:20:17 EDT 2001
Oh, BTW.. I can't seem to get the system time corretly... though I don't
care... heheh. For some things I need it to be right or I'll get
something like WARNING the file has a modification time in the future.
Tnx a lot-
