Help on clarification of supported platform for Postgres 8.2

Dear Team,

  I am working for small firm in Mumbai, India. We are interested in running Postgres 8.2 database on IBM unix platform
(Power5processor). Need your help in confirmation whether Postgres 8.2 runs on  

   AIX 5.3 OS on Power5 cpu
   SLES 9 OS on Power5 platform
  Please help me with above clarification. I checked on following site for supported platform
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/supported-platforms.html

  But couldn't get much clarity on required platform.

  Please help.

  Thanx
  Siraj Khan

this is a platform that is both on the supported platform list (but make
sure to read the AIX FAQ for specific things to consider) and on the
buildfarm (http://buildfarm.postgresql.org)

This is not an explicitly tested platform(hence not listed) for 8.2 but
I would expect it to work just fine.
