You can find the most recent versions of the code at:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/mips-linux/simple/userland-0.2b
There isn't a base.tar.gz in the 'simple' system any more. I found that
for a diskless Indy I could just extract all these packages into one
directory and then mount that. You'll need the most recent kernel from:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/mips-linux/simple/kernels
as well.
If you plan on running with this setup then you will probably want to
create a /tmp directory and a /var/log which appeared to be missing on
mine.
