My apologies if this is the wrong mailing list for this question -
I have recently aquired an SGI O2 ip32 R5k box that I am trying to
install linux onto -
I have managed to get a binary 64bit kernel to boot vis nfs and bootp()
that I downloaded from Glaurungs website:
http://www.linux-mips.org/~glaurung/
however I am unsure as to the correct rootfs that I am suposed to use -
I pulled down the redhat 7.1 rootfs from somewhere but it hangs when
trying to start the 'local' service - and wont boot if this service is
switched off -
I would be grateful if you could suggest where I may download a suitable
rootfs and ecoff boot image that will work together on my O2 box - would
hate to give in at this stage - and indeed any other help you may be
able to give me as a linux mips O2 user - I will put together an updated
HOWTO once I am sure exactly what I am supposed to be doing - the
information and resources on this subject do seem to be a little vague -
thanks for your time
Damian
