That's one of the beauties of Linux: unlike a competing "operating system"
which shall remain nameless (but is headquartered in Redmond, WA), it'll
run on pretty much *anything*. It will find more hardware errors...
because it uses the entire system much more efficiently. But if the
hardware's ok, it'll run for a *long* time. So, yes, anything you've got
should work.
