3.1 Operating System Certifications
Listed below are the operating systems that Intel plans to certify with the Intel® Compute
Module MFS5000SI. However, the customer is responsible for their own certification from the
individual operating system vendors. In many cases, the customer may leverage their operating
system certifications from Intel’s testing. See the “Comments” section next to each operating
system in the table below for additional information. Intel’s certifications, pre-certification, and
operating system testing may help reduce some of the risk in achieving customer certifications
with the operating system vendors.
