Howto updated so it show how to take a system currently running IRIX and
get it to a point where it is running Linux. I know it isn't truly
development work, but Ive been stuck with a non-functional Indy for most
of a month.My problems seem to be related to trying to NFS boot off of a
remote XFS file system but I could be wrong. I haven't grabbed the
latest kernel to try so that could resolve my issue.
This issues might have been resolved by Miguel's latest CVS commit.
Your NFS problems might also have been cause by the VFS rewrite which
was essentially turning the filesystems into an inferno for a limited
time.

Agreed. Im going to re-try boot later this afternoon with the new
kernel.
