The collected works of kammedo

Oh man, $30,000 bucks as a start :shock:
If they are going to get Itanium, the price is going to drop anytime soon :roll:
Is there a way to "force" an installation over its conflicts?
I have a pkg who won't install because it doesn't recognize it's requirements, which, of course, are already installed and work just ok.

Any help appreciated.

Hi, i managed to boot my diskless Indy from a kernel i tftp'ed over via linux to set up my u64 board (see http://www.yntproject.net/index.php?section=u64 ).
I settled up a static ip first, from the managemenr then connected the pc and the indy with a cross (obviously).
The rest is confuse, I dont recall it too much because it was like 4 years ago, my indy hdd went nuts in the meantime and I grew older and didnt had the time to check it ;) .

It was pretty hard.
There is a neato TCP stack conf you need to do. its listed here, maybe thats the problem.

Always wanted to do it. Will have a look at it the next times that come.
The u64 board doesn't show up in hinv as far as I know.

Also, for the love of god, before you mess around with it, back up the disk for future generations.


Irix 5.3 is the default that I have it on. As far as my knowledge goes, it is supported up to IRIX 6.1. But im not 100% sure about that.

IRIX 6.1 was only for R8000 Power Challenge/Onyx and Power Indigo2. IRIX 6.2 was an all-platform release again.


So it should be 6.2. Thanks :D
