Hello, the list;
The AMD news about the upcoming Barcelona release says it will run on RHEL 5.
Does that imply (or does anyone have experience to show) that F7 will run on
it ok?

Barring motherboard/chipset problems (which - given the use of the
existing socket F platform - should be pretty rare) - Barcelona CPUs
should work out of box on both Fedora and RHEL/CentOS.
Correct me if I'm wrong:
RHEL 5 came from the development that was released as FC6.
FC6 and F7 receive newer kernels soon after they are released, while
RHEL 5 gets mainly/only gets security back ports.
So it would seem more likely that if the one distro doesn't work with
the new CPU, it is more likely to be the older RHEL 5.
