I run FreeBSD 5.2.1 (RELENG_5_2) on my IBM A31 now and everything works 
well for me. Before I was able to run FreeBSD on this machine, I used to 
run RedHat, Fedora and Debian GNU/Linux on that machine for a while (I 
really liked RedHat/Fedora). The problem is, that all 
Linux-Distributions have their issues, technically or politically...
