Well debian has already run on it from a couple of week. Even if I admit I have not so much to dedicate right now, but I thought my question for the very close future to have the chance to collect all the infos I need. I'm pretty good in debian's stuff, but it is my first experience about a debian porting on other architecture!
I have installed woody with 2.4.9 kernel in it, Xfree 4.1.0: in fact I downloaded palinux 0.9.3 (rc6).
Well I will try and I let you know the results: consider that HP9000/710 is older than yours!
Thanks
