There is a port of Redhat 5.2 to the SGI mips machines, such as the Indy, and I think Debian supports it. The install requires you have an NFS server to do the install from, and IRIX loaded on the machine (on a seperate drive or partition) to copy the kernel onto cause the PROM boot loader only knows about IRIX filesystems. I am going to try that first and see if I can upgrade various packages from Debian since the redhat distro is fairly well documented (and I already downloaded it). Look on www.sgi.com for the linux stuff, and you should be able to find the section on linux on mips hardware from there site. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
