Hm, Debian has no IRIX-style installation tools. What should happen: - the firmware variable OsLoadPartition is set to scsi(0)cdrom(X), with X being the CDROMs SCSI-id. (After that, available bootfiles can be listed with the "ls" command, those should be "r4k-ip22" and "r5k-ip22".) - The OsLoader variable points to one of those bootfiles. - The bootfile is executed and starts the installer. The problem is, the firmware expects a bootfile with the name "sashARCS" for an automatic startup of the installation. You can work around it by typing at the firmware prompt: setenv OsLoadPartition scsi(0)cdrom(X) setenv OsLoader r4k-ip22 boot Could you retry with this method?
