Well mips-arc should be right, mipsel-arc would not be.

I have not tried grub (or linux) on my SGI since it has an unsupported
video board, so IRIX is all I get to play with on it.

The arcboot.ip32 is for SGI O2, the arcboot.ip22 for SGI Indy.
The arcboot.ip32 at least executes fine on my SGI O2. (it is MIPS32
binary)
I need to check if ARCS can execute arcboot compiled to ELF64
binary.

best regards

Can you send me an image (of any bootloade) that boots? We can then try
another address then

Grub is cross-compiled for platform arc.
Isn't arc the right choice? I thought ARC/ARCS is the prom 
inside the SGI machine.
