Hello, |
2 |
|
3 |
I've got a new (to me) SGI Octane I'm trying to setup. It's an Octane 1; |
4 |
R10K 195MHz; 2GB RAM setup. At the moment I've got some issues making |
5 |
the disk bootable (more to follow, arcload throws weird memory problem |
6 |
messages and I can't find the Web CVS to give you the exact messages), |
7 |
and the stock Gentoo MIPS kernel seems to have some problem with the |
8 |
onboard network controller (doesn't send or recieve packets). |
9 |
|
10 |
I've used a random kernel off the net (from a Gentoo developer's |
11 |
personal web space) which has made the machine (net) boot, and allowed |
12 |
me to install the stage 3 tarball. emerge is working, and I've compiled |
13 |
a (untested) kernel. |
14 |
|
15 |
So far, a HUGE thanks to the cast of thousands who've enabled me to get |
16 |
this far! |

Thanks, |
