R10000 SGI O2

[Stockli Reto <stockli@geo.umnw.ethz.ch>]

I will give a try later to have my SGI O2 R10000 175MHz running Linux
and will report found problems and possible solutions. 

For not repeating here what has already been done:
Has anyone ever tried the same before and what are the problems to
encounter? I will most likely boot from a bootp linux server. Is there a
chance that I get a console on my O2 or do I only have a serial
connection.

Thanks for any nice introductory remarks!
Cheers,

Reto
