I removed the harddrive inside it, and installed linux on a pc, since I needed a pc with linux at the time. Then I put it back to my sgi, and I can not put IRIX back to it. When I click install system software (or recover system) it looks for the cdrom, finds it, and I get the following message in a window: bootfile is not set using default dks0d1s8: volume header not valid swap partition (0) is not a valid swap area Press to return to the menu If I click diagnostics, it says it is booting IDE, and gives out a hinv information, and then a little \ is rotating forever. (it does not do anything) When I turn on the machine it gives the following errs: Cannot load sash no default device and path in environment unable to load bootfile: invalid argument unable to boot press any key to continue Does anyone has any ideas/recomendations/help to fix this problem. I've talked to amny ppl, including the ppl I bought my mahine from, but no one seems to know OS specific issues like this.

Install sgibuild: Refer to the following for how to install it and where to get it from. sgibuild from Baron Roberts: Linux sgibuild Home Page: http://peanut/cgi-bin/wrap/baron/sgibuild sgibuild documentation: http://peanut/~baron/sgibuild/doc/sgibuild.html The email list linux-sgibuild, archived by thread: http://postofc.corp/mailman_archives/linux-sgibuild A Multi-Platform Build Architecture: http://peanut.engr/build/MultiBuild.html b. Install ptools for Linux: To have ptools on Linux, do this as root (copied from the bonnie:/usr/local/bin/ptools/p_wrapper script): # How to "install" ptools p_* client commands on your Linux system: # # 1) The environment variable $WORKAREA must be set, and # point to a valid workarea, with a .workarea file that # at least sets the following resources. # # Required Linux .workarea entries: # # workarea.sm_machine : ... # Irix server host (e.g. bonnie) # workarea.sm_location : ... # Path to top of source tree # source_machine.user : ... # Your Irix server login id # source_machine.group : ... # Your Irix server login group # source_machine.local_rcs_directory : /usr/bin For example, my .workarea file looks like the following: # .workarea for MediaBase 4.2 Build workarea.sm_machine : bonnie.engr.sgi.com workarea.sm_location : /isms/mediabase/4.2 source_machine.user : singal source_machine.group : engr source_machine.local_rcs_directory : /usr/bin # # In particular "source_machine.user" and "source_machine.group" # must be specified in the .workarea file. This is required even # if your Linux login id is the same as your Irix id. # # [Well, actually, user can be specified in other ways. See # the real story below, in the help message beginning with: # 'ptools - Unable to identify user id. ...'] # # 2) Copy this p_wrapper script to your Linux system, wherever it # is convenient to invoke, onetime. It must be named p_wrapper. # # 3) Invoke "p_wrapper -u" as root on your Linux system to # install the Linux ptools p_* client commands. # # 4) The p_wrapper invocation will perform the following steps: # # - It copies the Irix p_wrapper to your Linux /usr/local/bin. # - It unpacks the Irix linux_man.cpio-c.gz man pages to # /usr/local/man/man1 on your Linux system. # - It creates ~19 hard links in /usr/local/bin on your Linux # system, one link for each p_* ptools binary executable # client command in /usr/local/bin/ptools on your Irix system, # each link a hard link to the copy of p_wrapper in that directory. # - It copies about 13 p_* shell scripts from /usr/local/bin/ptools # on your Irix system, to /usr/local/bin on your Linux system. # # 5) You are now ready to use ptools from your Linux system, # subject to the following Requirements and Limitations: # # Linux environment must set WORKAREA to a valid workarea, # with a .workarea file containing at least the five # resource settings listed above. # Your Irix server must have a sufficiently recent version of # ptools installed (post April 1999, approximately). # Your Irix server must have a "ptclient" login id, that # allows password free rcp/rsh from your Linux system. # You must be using the (default) rpc transport. The older # ptools transports such as network or nfs_ro don't # work -- they will fail with various errors. # The p_setup command isn't supported on Linux -- and might # never be supported there -- too messy to port. c. p_tupdate your workarea. d. You need to set the following environment variables: WORKAREA - the location of your current workarea BUILD_ROOT - create a "build" directory under work/linux and set BUILD_ROOT to point to this. DIST_ROOT - create a "dist" directory under work/linux and set DIST_ROOT to point to this. e. To build for linux, you need to follow the following sequence: 1) do a make in linux/ocs_make_root 2) do make headers and make exports in linux/informix 3) do make headers, make exports and make in linux/ocs --------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: a.

I suppose the problem you're observing has hit me on the Indy when I upgraded it to 2.3.11. I've traced it to some inconsistence between the page tables in memory and the TLB which results in recursive page faults which lockup the process in do_pagefault() in fault.c.

I am a Debian developer and I want to participate in creating a Debian/MIPS distribution. Unfortunatelly I could not find any current information about how the port is going, which CPUs, machines are supported, the last update of www.linux.sgi.com was about half a year ago. I need this information to know what machines to search for to work on. For start, I might get access to an older Indigo2, which, according to the mailing list archives (which seems to be missing the last several months' traffic too) is working with linux... Btw is the list archived somewhere else perhaps? I followed the link from www.linux.sgi.com, the latest messages there are dated June 25. And can someone summarize the current status of linux on different workstation models ?

Im not positive how wu-ftpd is configured for Linux but looking in ~ftp/lib for libc.so, ~ftp/bin for ls and ~ftp/dev for zero would probably be where I would start first. Here is a good simple set of instructions for configuring an anon ftp server: ~ftp Make the home directory owned by ``ftp'' and unwritable by anyone (mode 555 - see chmod(1)): chown ftp ~ftp chmod a-w ~ftp ~ftp/bin Make this directory owned by the super-user and unwritable by anyone (mode 555). The program ls(1) must be present to support the list commands. This program should have mode 111. ~ftp/etc Make this directory owned by the super-user and unwritable by anyone (mode 555). The files passwd(4) and group(4) must be present for the ls command to be able to produce owner names rather than numbers. This should not be a copy of the real file in /etc, and in particular, it should contain no encrypted passwords from the real /etc/passwd or /etc/group. The password field in passwd is not used. Only the minimal number of accounts should be listed. These files should be mode 444. ~ftp/lib32 Make this directory own by the super-user and unwritable by anyone (mode 555). In order for ls to run, the files /lib32/rld and /lib32/libc.so.1 must be copied into lib32 (older releases, or some uses of other programs might also require the o32 versions in /lib. Both rld and libc.so.1 should be readable and executable by everyone, e.g. mode 555. ~ftp/dev Make this directory owned by the super-user and unwritable by anyone (mode 555). rld uses /dev/zero, so use mknod(1) to make a copy of /dev/zero in ~ftp/dev with the same major and minor device numbers. Make /dev/zero read-only (mode 444). mknod ~ftp/dev/zero c 37 0 chmod 444 ~ftp/dev/zero ~ftp/pub Make this directory owned by ``ftp''. If local users and remote anonymous users are to be allowed to write in this directory, change the directory's mode to 777. Users can then place files which are to be accessible via the anonymous account in this directory. If write accesses are to be denied, change the directory's mode to 555. Hope that helps!

I looked up the online FAQ at linux.sgi.com.It says that it might occur if the distribution is not on a linux.(because of non-standard file represantation). The tar file is on an NFS mounted machine running AIX 4.x.I untarred it to the local disk of my linux box.And I did the installation from my machine running linux.But I still have the same problem.
