indy2 boot-install problems - SOLVED
hi!
As some of you know i had quite a problem with my SGI Indigo2.
I couldn`t get it to boot up(with tftpboot.img) to get debian installed.
I was not using a serial console.
I had a XL graphics crad, but only one. I have read other places that
the problem would be solved if youd remove one card if you had two.
But i just have one.
So after bugging Guido with some mails, he told me to try a other slot
for the graphics card.
I tried the slot above it used. The card in my indy was as the bottom,
so i just moved it slot up.
And now, it seems like i can install debian. (havent tried yet, but the
installation worked!)
Oh, and another thing.
I did not use the tftpboot.img from debian, but from
http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de/linux-mips/install/r4k-ip22/tftpboot.img
hm.. well.. back to the install.
I hope i`ll get X working :)
