That's an old microchannel machine with the original power
architecture. As far as I know, Linux was never ported to them and no
further work is contemplated. AIX is the only OS you can run on it.
If you want a faster 7012/34H to replace it, and are willing to pick
it up in the Los Angeles area, let me know.
