Linux Hardware Matrix for HP Workstations
HP Z200 SFF Workstation
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; Select "download drivers and software".
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, please visit
www.lightscribe.com for software to enable the labeling feature.
footnote 4 - Hardware RAID is not supported on SATA drives.
