Can I help in some way? > google searches came up empty. First of all I don't know if there is any documentation available for the Octane. Furthermore it might have the problem explained in: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-sgimips/2000/06/29/0006.html which bites at least the I2 and O2 R10k, but the link below states something different: http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-sgimips/2002/02/22/0001.html People at [EMAIL PROTECTED] will know a lot more than me about this.
