One of the died in the wool windows guys at work has a couple of SGI boxes kicking around at home. We were talking about them and installing Linux on one or both. So what particular architecture should he use for an Octane and an O2?
The SGI website indicates that the Octane and Octane2 systems are MIPS, which means that there is no SUSE (or any other, that I'm aware of) distribution for it. You'd have to build your own
Debian (http://www.debian.org/ports/mips/) and Gentoo (http://mips.gentoo.org/) support MIPS. Give 'em try.
Neat. He knows about Debian and would put the effort into getting it up and running. Thanks.
