Older distributions are not officially supported, which means that it may or may not work. It all depends on your luck. It should be possible to compile latest LTP even on slightly older distributions than we support with a few manual tweaks, e.g. disabling manually tests for newly added syscalls, etc. Trivial fixes/workarounds may be accepted, but users are encouraged to move to a newer distro.
If latest LTP cannot be compiled even with some amount of workarounds, you may result to older LTP releases, however these are not supported in any way. Also if you are trying to run LTP on more than 10 years old distribution you may as well reconsider you life choices.
