because that'd break everything that depends on or wants such a version

yeah that's the default com.apple.Boot.plist. if you don't have either chameleon will just use the defaults
Is there any way to add a specific boot list?
sure, just create that file in /Extra. shouldn't be hard to find an example out there

But why does anything want such a "version" ?
well, different versions are different. if a program uses a feature that only came with a specific version (or higher usually) then it needs to check for it

maxxi.desktop wrote: clang replaces CC
the only other option is to install gcc. that's one of the few disadvantages of the bsd family. unfortunately a major one: there're no serious compilers available at all
the linux_base-c6 package's installation script is full of bugs.
well i guess that's not a priority package. those who use bsd do so because they do not want linux.
as for the rest, either use a proper machine or try a vm.

not despite, the r4400 is mips3. if you want mips4 you need an r5000 or higher. for freeware that runs on your indy have a look at tgcware or my builds for 6.2.

which makes them the most versatile of all. they can run everything from irix 4 to 6.5.22
r-a-c.de
SpaceDebris wrote: I'm just going to try and get one of each.
that's the best option of course
however, an r10k indigo2 is not too useful because it'll still be quite laggy for anything that needs 6.5.x. an octane or higher is the better choice there.
in other words everything less than an r10000 o2 doesn't make much sense with 6.5.x. older, lighter irix versions with older, lighter programs is where an indigo shines.

centos supports xfs just fine. linux xfs that is, i never tried an irix disk.

Trippynet wrote: Although the biggest advantage of the R10000 Indigo2 (apart from increased performance over the R4400s and the higher RAM limit) is the ability to run the main Nekoware repository. I know you've compiled/provided a sizeable array of packages for earlier systems, and you can also always do a hamei and compile your own too, but if you simply want access to the biggest array of current stuff available with the least hassle, a MIPS4 system with IRIX 6.5.21+ will give the easiest way to run the widest range of stuff.
of course, for nekoware 6.5 is the only choice
from personal experience I find that my Indigo2 runs 6.5 and a chunk of Nekoware stuff just fine for me!
sure, most of the freeware should run fine on an r10000 indigo2 but that's not what i meant. i meant the "fat" commercial software. when i see for example how sluggish the maya gui is even on a fairly well equipped octane and compare that to poweranimator on an indigo2, well, pa wins with flying colors.
of course, as always, it depends on what you wanna do

hexedit has no gui, it runs in the terminal so double click on the desktop will not work.
you have 3 options:
1. add /usr/nekoware/bin to your $PATH and then just type its name
2. go to /usr/nekoware/bin and then type: ./hexedit
3. run it with the full path: /usr/nekoware/bin/hexedit
so as you can see the installation is straight-forward, what needs schooling are your shell skills

I am able to goto the offset but am unsure what to do next. I'm going to put it on hold while I read up on what I need to do. Thanks for your help!
give the manpage a try. it's not very difficult to use

Only the 3x series can read sata
ah sure, that's a special case since sata is not "real" sgi

hamei wrote: There's over 160 tardists in /beta that no one has bothered to comment on
yeah that's unfortunate.
there's now issues with programs in current that require libraries that are still in beta
then those should not have been moved to current in the first place.
anyway as Trippynet said, as long as the stuff is there (in whatever folder) it's nice

hamei wrote:foetz wrote: ah sure, that's a special case since sata is not "real" sgi
Seems kinda real, it's xfs
it's not "real" because sgi never sold irix machines with sata (external storage systems not counted).
as for the actual problem, how about giving an ordinary debian a try? i could read efs cds with it maybe that's a sign?

Vladio wrote: I like old but something that still has functionality. Something I can install some apps to play around with.
that's the main problem with everything but irix. for desktop use it's just nothing there with the exception of maybe some rather specific things you might have by accident such as cfd visualizers or some cad stuff.
for more common use solaris is your best bet. there you can have a quite recent firefox, openoffice and gimp but that's about it. with all others you're out of luck as far as the desktop goes unless you're fine with just a text editor and compiler i.e. a pure dev box.

the default on freebsd is ufs(2) or zfs. according to the manpages there's further support for: cd9660, mfs, msdosfs, nfs, ntfs, nwfs, nullfs, oldnfs, portalfs, smbfs, udf, and unionfs.
openbsd runs on ffs (pun not intended
). additional support is there for: ext2fs, mfs, nfs, procfs, udf, cd9660, msdos, ntfs, tmpfs and vnd

the renderman and mental ray renderers were available for the alpha as well as a full version of lightwave but for the alpha version of windows nt.
for a while alias was available for aix, hpux and solaris. those versions however were not complete one way or another.
as far as the desktop goes osf/tru64 had the smallest selection of available software.

definitely keep them!

Still makes a fine server though.
of course, as mentioned already this is all about desktop stuff. for server use all unices are great

ah yeah nice never seen that. seems to be updates to the official tru64 freeware cd compaq shipped for a while. i didn't see a download link tho.
anyway as for the age, going by the versions this could be from around 2000 or so

The demo only undeletes deleted files that are smaller than 64kb, so I tried that and it worked okay. There was nothing on the disk so great that I wanted to spend the $20 to register but if you did have something important that was accidentally deleted, this program is worth trying.
