My setup at this moment is as follows; Origin200 server with dual R10K or R12K (not sure which one) which I got from my IT dept. as they weren't using it and was a write off when we were doing the distribution for SGI.
(lucky me !!! even got an Origin vault with it, but guess I won't use that) Anyway, it lacked a cd-rom and harddisk, I got both, a correct Toshiba CD-ROM and a 4.3 GB SCA harddisk in the bottom (system disk) slot. The hard disk is to my best knowledge empty ! I hooked the server (which does not have a display connector) to an Etherminal C thin client through a serial connection and its ANSI emulator (some details here http://www.thinner.de/produkt.php3?produkt_id=19) So know I can see the boot sequence and the prompt below the 5 options looking like this: +++++++++++++++ 1) Start System 2) Install System Software 3) Run Diagnostics 4) Recover System 5) Enter Command Monitor Option? +++++++++++++++ So where do I go from here ? Would appreciate any help / directions etc, have read the MIPS FAQ but I feel I need somewhere to start.
