Just booted my borrowed Indy to Linux, and then proceeded to destroy its
e2fs partition with some excessive use of Alan's installer.
It looks like it's a viable install setup though, so I'm going to try an
produce a more managable kit tonight:
- minimal root.cpio to boot to (no kernel source, for example, and no
compiler =) )
- rpm.cpio with everything you need to do further installs via
ftp://ftp.linux.sgi.com/pub/mips-linux/RPMS/...
- a handful of ext2tools (mke2fs, e2fsck -- you need to e2fsck at each
step, it seems)
I'll bundle it all up in a nice tarball and stick it on linus for people
to play with. (There are a bunch of folks here at Netscape who are
interested in playing with it as well.)
Mike

Hello guys,
My Indy died yesterday. I just heard it going off.
I changed the power supply cables and checked that the problem is
indeed not with the cables. I can not turn it on, I assume it is just
a fuse in the power supply, anyone familiar with common Indy failures?
Miguel.
