Any JVM between 1.4 and 1.5 is supported. JBoss can run on numerous operating systems including many POSIX platforms like RHEL and MacOS X, Windows, and others, as long as a suitable JVM is present.
JBoss AS 4.2 is also a J2EE 1.4 application server, but EJB 3 is deployed by default. It requires JDK 5. Tomcat 6 is bundled with it.
