installing linux on hp 9000

Hi,
I've just get an old hp 9000 running hp-ux 8.
I would like to install a Linux on it.
Does anybody knows if it's possible?
And if yes, is there a prefered distrib?

Thanks for all.

Antoine

I would suggest Debian, it's quite close, free and hp lab engineers contribute to it.
