Well, when we got word yesterday that 4600's were working, we swapped
the CPU module on linux.detroit to an R400 and we are working that way
towards getting a bootable system.
We are still having problems getting a boot via nfs to work.
Things would be a whole lot simpler if we could mke2fs on a disk while
booting IRIX, mount it and copy all the stuff over before trying to boot
linux.
