yes, you can. 5L (5.1) does support 32 bit hardware, and microchannel boxes.

There will be NO support for this hardware in 5.2, since IBM is dropping
support for MCA.

I have 5.1 running on some very old hardware.

I don't know where I got it from, but I was under the impression that AIX v5 was for the 64 bit hardware. Was I wrong? Could I install AIX v5L on a 7013-J50, J40 and a 7012-G30?
