Linux Hardware Matrix for HP Workstations
HP Z200 SFF Workstation
This page is not complete without the General Notes (first page of the matrix).
footnote 1 - HP systems can usually be ordered with a localization that affects documentation, keyboards, and other components. Typical Linux distributions are not installed as pre-localized, but
the user can choose a language and keyboard layout during post-installation configuration, or during the "first boot" when the OS comes preloaded on the system.
footnote 2 - Get the latest drivers, "HP Installer Kit for Linux - HP Driver CD for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4", and "HP Installer Kit for Linux - HP Driver CD for SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11" ISO
images from http://www.hp.com/support/z200SFF. Under Download options, select Get drivers, software & firmware.
footnote 3 - Linux growisofs supports DVD+RW and Blu-ray media on Red Hat EL 5 Desktop or later and SLED11 or later. For drives that have the Lightscribe functionality, go to www.lightscribe.com
for software to enable the labeling feature.
