Will the Linux MC run on ARM-based processors?

Ha! Back in the day, I wrote Fortran code for CAD software that ran on a Data General MV/4000 running AOS/VS and later DG/UX.
BryanC:
Can library server run as a daemon on Linux? I'm trying to determine what type of low-power systems this could run on. I would ideally like to run MC Library Server on my Pi, but without ARM support I might have to look into a low-cost, low-power ITX solution.

Ahh, the competition. I was a Convex kernel guy for a while.

I don't think we ever ran on Convex, but we did port to HP-UX, IBM RS/6000, Apollo, Mac II, DOS, and Windows. We also wholesale converted from Fortran to C code at some point - that was interesting.
MrC:
Right, ConvexOS was proprietary, BSD 4.2x based. We contributed some kernel code to what would become BSD 4.3. DG was, like Apollo, Cray (at the low end), Evans and Sutherland and a few others whose names escape me, one of our competitors. Some of the founders came from DG.
