Hi! I wish you the greatest luck in your little project. SGI forever! While I am sure there is great theoretical interest in non-x86 ports of SL (and siblings), I can see how there is no practical interest in the IA-64 port because IA-64 hardware is not generally available. (We do have IA-64 machines at TRIUMF, but they run VMS, of all things. They are part of the control system of our 500-MeV/c proton cyclotron, replacing ALPHA VMS machines, replacing VAX VMS machines). -- Konstantin Olchanski Data Acquisition Systems: The Bytes Must Flow!
