  • Donation of a HP PARISC machine?

    From Helge Deller@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 4 21:40:01 2021
    Dear PARISC Linux fans,

    Sadly the power supply unit of our main PARISC machine (http://a500.parisc-linux.org) died.
    It hosted old mailing lists, the parisc FTP website and was building debian packages.

    It was an old HP A500-44 machine (rp24xx) which was sponsored by HP around year 2000
    to the PA-RISC Linux project, and hosted since 2014 at OSUOSL in the US.

    If you own a PA-RISC server in the US which you would like to offer for free to the parisc project,
    now is the time to stand up and get your name mentioned on the PA-RISC sponsor list!

    There was a guy on Hackernews yesterday that has a PA-RISC machine that he is planning to decomission
    soon. I already recommended him to offer the machine to Debian [1].
