<title>Overview</title>
<para>Installing, configuring and testing the Evergreen server-side software is straightforward with the current stable software release. See <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-all"/> for instructions tailored to installing on some particular distributions of the <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> operating system. Earlier software distributions are described in <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-previousversions"/>.</para>
- <para>The current version of the Evergreen server-side software runs as a native application on any of several well-known <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> distributions (e.g., <systemitem class="osname">Ubuntu</systemitem> and <systemitem class="osname">Debian</systemitem>). It does not currently run as a native application on the <systemitem class="osname">Microsoft Windows</systemitem> operating system (e.g., <systemitem class="osname">WindowsXP</systemitem>, <systemitem class="osname">WindowsXP Professional</systemitem>, <systemitem class="osname">Windows7</systemitem>), but the software can still be installed and run on <systemitem class="osname">Windows</systemitem> via a so-called <emphasis>virtualized</emphasis> Unix-guest Operating System (using, for example, <application>"VirtualBox"</application>, or <application>"VMware"</application>, or <application>"VirtualPC"</application> to emulate a <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> environment). It can also be installed to run on other <systemitem class="osname">Linux</systemitem> systems via virtualized environments (using, for example, <application>"VirtualBox"</application> or <application>"VMware"</application>). More information on virtualized environments can be found in <xref linkend="serversideinstallation-virtual"/>.</para>
