Real Time Linux for Intel and AMD Quad-Core Processors - Concurrent

Concurrent is going to release new version of RedHawk Linux 4.2 real-time operating system. The new version supports Intel quad-core processors and the AMD Opteron quad-core CPUs (whenthey are available). The RedHawk Linux 4.2 provides support for Infiniband, optional global file system and high-availability NFS, nVidia and other 3rd party drivers.

RedHawk Linux v4.2 operating system is built on the 2.6.18.8 Linux kernel and incorporates many of the accepted Ingo Molnar real-time patches, overall performance and stability enhancements and improved user application space features unavailable in older kernels. Compatible with Red Hat Enterprise 4 Update 4, RedHawk Linux version 4.2 includes support for running the 32-bit version of RedHawk on AMD Opteron based systems in addition to the 64-bit version already supported. This capability benefits customers who want the advanced AMD architecture, while requiring their OS to run in native 32-bit mode for specific device driver compatibility.

Technical experts from Concurrent (Booth #516) will be available to answer questions on RedHawk Linux 4.2 and other Concurrent solutions at the ITEC 2007 Conference and Exhibition, Europe's premier Defence Training, Education and Simulation conference, being held April 24-26, 2007 in Cologne, Germany.
