  <sect2 arch="alpha" id="alpha-cpus"><title>CPU, Main Boards, and Video Support</title>
<para>

Complete information regarding supported DEC Alphas can be found at
<ulink url="&url-alpha-howto;">Linux Alpha HOWTO</ulink>.  The
purpose of this section is to describe the systems supported
by the boot disks.

</para><para>

Alpha machines are subdivided into different system types because there
are a number of generations of motherboard and supporting chipsets.
Different systems (<quote>sub-architectures</quote>) often have radically
different engineering and capabilities.  Therefore, the process of
installing and, more to the point, booting, can vary from system to system.

</para><para>

The following table lists the system types supported by the Debian
installation system.  The table also indicates the <emphasis>code
name</emphasis> for these system types.  You'll need to know this code
name when you actually begin the installation process:

<para>

It is believed that Debian &releasename; supports installing on all
alpha sub-architectures with the exception of the ARC-only Ruffian and
XL sub-architectures and the Titan subarchitecture, which requires a
change to the kernel compile options.
