Re: Linux MIPS port

["Steve Reindl" <sreindl@home.com>]

Okay. Where do I get the OSS version of IRIX. I'm trying to be
non-conformist (cheap) about this!
I did take a look around the SGI web site and they have some pretty
promising looking stuff there. I don't think anything newer than a RH 5.2
port called HardHat though. There are a bunch of rpms for 7.1 ported but I
don't think they quite have the bugs worked out yet. I'll have to read more
when I'm not so tired.
