Hello:
I noticed that in my country supercomputer center all machines, both CPU (FERMI) and GPU (AURORA, PLX) run on RedHat Linux. As a long time user of Debian GNU Linux amd64, I am curious whether such machines elsewhere also run, or could run, on Debian am64. If not, why? A problem of kernel?

Thanks
