Hi,
I've recently picked up an SGI O2, 300mhz R12k, 512Mb RAM.
Playing with getting it working, using Ilya's minimal patches on top of
the LMO CVS HEAD, I noticed that it wasn't pulling up the correct amount
of RAM. I threw mem=512M onto the params, and found a kernel crash.
Boots mostly fine:

Crashes:

Decoded:

Kernel config:

I've also got one weird problem where it never gets any further than the
init call to my busybox initrd.
Output using an old debian netboot initrd (from debian-mips-2.4.19.img):
serial console detected. Disabling virtual terminals. init started:
BusyBox v0.60.3-pre (2002.01.22-06:31+0000) multi-call binary
Output for using bleeding-edge Gentoo initrd that works perfectly for
an Indy and an I2:
init started: BusyBox v1.00-pre7 (2004.02.10-08:42+0000) multi-call binary
In both cases, right after the init message, absolutely nothing happens.
I've tried putting commands in the linuxrc that would cause some
externally visible activity, but nothing.
I am wondering if it may have to with the virtual consoles (which I had
to turn off to get any serial output), but I doubt they are the problem.
