If you have installed the little endian firmware then you can choose
"install Windooze NT" from the boot menu. The big endian firmware
obviously doesn't have this feature, it should tell something about Sinix,
SNI's UNIX.
In order to run Linux you must have the little endian firmware installed.
Also you must have two extra floppies with the HAL and driver in order to
install NT; the NT CD is not sufficient.
