A friend of mine is an IT director for a school, and handed me an Indy. I am told it has 256MB of RAM and an R5000 processor. The good news is that it boots! It went right to the login screen. It seems to be running Irix 5.2. The bad news is that all usernames and passwords have long been forgotten. So, my quesiton is: What can I do with this? I do not have any installation media. (Or a cd drive, for that matter) It does have an ethernet adapter.
I would prefer to install Irix 6.5, but if that is not possible, I have heard that there is a version of Gentoo that will work with it. I like the massive CRT that it came with.
Any suggestions?
