I am testing Legato 7.4 with SP2 and I was wondering if there was a

for Debian Linux? Anyone here have any experience working with that
OS?
Your biggest problem is that it isn't supported - as such, if you run
into problems and want to log a call for issues on that particular
client, you will get significant push back from EMC support to the
point that you may not be able to get support at all.
That being said, I've had experience in the past with doing a rpm2cpio
on the NetWorker client package and extracting the cpio'd package into
place. The last time I had a client who needed to do this, it was
v7.2.x, but I can't imagine it's changed so much that it'll prevent
you from doing so.
Again, be aware that support options in this scenario may be
significantly limited.

Preston.
