In your server's product guide, you can read: "Operating systems supported : ... RHEL 4/5 32/64-bit with and without Xen..." So yes, CentOS 4 should be supported... By the way, the latest 4.x version is 4.8... and soon 4.9. Unless you have specific reasons to go 32-bit, go 64...

Hi John,
Yes i tried it, Centos 4.8 is supported on IBMX3200 M3, thanks for this.
Also i want to use Dell ones [R310, R410, R415, R510, R610 and R710] i found on the page of "Operating System Support Matrix for Dell PowerEdge Systems" [http://advisors.dell.com/advisorweb/iDriveMatrixView.aspx] that they all do support "RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX 4" Update 8 x86 & Update 8 x86_64
So do they also support CentOS 4.8 for sure? as Dell also doesn't give a formal answer onto this.
Thank you

If a hardware vendor states that he supports Red Hat Enterprise Linux of a specific release, this does not mean, he would support the corresponding CentOS, Scientific Linux or OEL release. It can be a good will activity, but may be bound to the supporter you talk to. In general, the hardware vendor will request you to demonstrate the issue you have with the supported RHEL release.
