global x86_64 () -> boolean

true for all x86-64 (AMD Hammer) architectures

global arch_short () -> string

General architecture type

global board_mac () -> boolean

true for all PPC "MacRISC" boards

global board_mac_new () -> boolean

true for all "NewWorld" power macs

global board_mac_old () -> boolean

true for all "OldWorld" power macs

global board_mac_nubus () -> boolean

true for all "NuBus" power macs

global board_chrp () -> boolean

true for all "CHRP" ppc boards

global board_iseries () -> boolean

true for all "iSeries" ppc boards

global board_prep () -> boolean

true for all "PReP" ppc boards

global board_wintel () -> boolean

true for all "Windows/Intel" compliant boards (x86 based)

global has_pcmcia () -> boolean

true if the system supports PCMCIA

global is_uml () -> boolean

true if UML

global is_xen () -> boolean

true if XEN

global setSMP (boolean is_smp) -> void

Set "Arch::has_smp ()". Since Alpha doesn't reliably probe smp, 'has_smp' must be set later with this function.

Parameters:
is_smp true if has_smp should be true
Example 
 setSMP(true);
global has_smp () -> boolean

true if running on multiprocessor board. This only reflects the board, not the actual number of CPUs or the running kernel!

global x11_setup_needed () -> boolean

run X11 configuration after inital boot this is false in case of: installation on iSeries installation on S390
