option -r is the crucial part here. it also works with swmgr. also note that it'll put a var folder in whatever you specified for -r so you might wanna use an empty dir

indeed zfs is quite fat and, depending on what you wanna use it for, needs some tweaks i.e. the default performance can be rather poor

irix has no getopt.h and no long options either.
the normal getopt is in unistd.h

then getopt.h is there after all. as you said it looks like at least some of the general dev stuff is missing.
i guess the key point here is, you need the stuff from the 2 dev cds even if you're not going to use mipspro

what happens if -O2 or higher is used?
Code: Select all
setenv LDFLAGS '-L/opt/homeboy/lib -L/usr/lib32 -lm -rpath /opt/homeboy/lib'
Any criticisms of the environment are appreciated ...
okay since you asked i can deliver 3
- you never need to add /usr/lib32 for n32 builds unless you explicitly disabled use of the standard libs. but then you don't want /usr/lib32 of course so adding -L/usr/lib32 makes no sense. if you should encounter api mismatch problems when linking use -n32.
- -lm is hardly ever needed unless the program was made for an os that has no separate math lib which is rare. otherwise -lm works pretty much everywhere. however you might wanna add -lfastm instead.
- -rpath is a nasty fellow because it renders the whole concept of environment variables void. only use that if you're sure that the user(s) don't mind the program using enforced paths. account/environment customizations are greatly limited by that.

"Mosh is a replacement for SSH. It's more robust and responsive, especially over Wi-Fi, cellular, and long-distance links."
this looked interesting so i gave it a shot. unfortunately these developers did not consider having anything else but glibc and gcc so even with gcc and quite some fixes it was a no-go.

just fire it up and at the "title screen" hit 5. this sends you to the prom where you can run "hinv". the output should be a nice overview of what you have so you can see the specs of your machine already

usually it's a good idea to do a "resetenv" in the prom before starting an installation. otherwise have a look at the output of "hinv" and set SystemPartition and OSLoadPartition accordingly

yeah that's correct but you still have to format it after. partitioning does not include creating a filesystem which goes for pretty much any os.
after booting the cd go to the admin menu and escape to a shell. in there run "mount" to see the full path of your root partition. then try:
Code: Select all
umount root_partition_path_here
mkfs /hw/rdisk/dks0d1s0
mount /hw/disk/dks0d1s0 root_partition_path_here
after that leave the shell (ctrl+d), return to the main menu and proceed with the installation

btw which of the irix cds did you use?
r-a-c.de
just to rule that one out since you didn't answer it: you have to boot with the first cd of 6.5.22 or 6.5.30. using the foundation's "boot" cd will not work on a fuel.

ManwelB wrote: I can still access disk2 and create directories
you can't, unix mounts are "seemless". that means you just create a folder somewhere and mount your device "into" that.
if the device is missing the folder is still there and you can use it but it's stored on your root disk instead.

well that's the problem, that won't work. as discussed before, for whatever reason way too many websites seem to think they need to follow every trend no matter how much sense it makes for them or not. unfortunately right now that means using too large fonts, way too much js even if not needed at all and practically no gfx. the result is that they look very poor yet require tons of resources to achieve the same (at best) they had years ago already despite causing just a fraction of the load.
so a browser that can handle all that junk can't be light. the only hope is that at some point the trend will change again to something reasonable.

ksh is not such a good choice for interactive shells. tcsh which comes with 6.5.x as well usually is much nicer
r-a-c.de
sure it works. in the end it's a matter of choice.
what i meant is that by default ksh as interactive shell doesn't have the "usual" stuff like arrow keys history, tab completion etc. in contrast to tcsh
