Install AIX on Apple Computers??
permalink
Anybody know for sure if it is possible to install a version of AIX on the current G4/G5 Macs? I know there was an older Mac (the Quadra, which came with AIX preinstalled -- an RS/6000 clone) that was capable of running AIX, but I'm curious about current hardware...

Anybody...?

Thanx!

No it is not possibe.
The G4/5 are chrp ppc architecture as are the IBM AIX machines but sadly there is no AIX support for the adapters, devices and firmware in the Mac machines so it will not install.
