You don't need sash at all unless you want to boot a kernel from a XFS filesystem. You can write the kernel intot the volumeheader using either the Linux or IRIX version of dvhtool or boot it from NFS. If your Indy has a very old PROM which doesn't accept ELF binaries you have to convert it to ECOFF. Ralf
