Has anyone actually gotten this working? I just tried installing it onto an Octane (I don't care if the gfx works).

It gets to the part where it partitions the disk and creates the filesystems. Then it panics.

Code:

Oh well, would have been nice. Guess I'll dig the U80 out instead.

To answer my own question:

The installer blows up if the machine has more than 1GB ram.

Of course 4.6 doesn't support the on-board network adapter and the 3Com card I have KPs the boot process.

I'll be trying -current now (which has on-board ethernet support).

And it lives!

$ uname -a
OpenBSD slartibartfast.4amlunch.net 4.6 GENERIC-IP30#117 sgi

The -current snapshot install went flawlessly. Now to merge my install script changes into the one from -current and I can re-install onto mirrored boot-disks.

Ah, hello, I didn't realize you were here.

I'm not in any hurry to get the second gig in since for what I'm using the machine for right now 1GB is fine, however, I've just experienced a new crash.

Went to check on the box this morning, couldn't get to it, so I hopped onto the console and saw the ddb> prompt.

Code:

Other than the NFS issue I've been having, this is the first time the box crapped out on me since I took the second gig of ram out of it.
