Debian in a Octane

[Leopold Palomo Avellaneda <lepalom@wol.es>]

Hi,

first of all I'm sorry if they are stupid questions, but I would like to ask. 
In our lab there's a SGI Octane (IP30). I think that it's a very good box and 
I would like to install a Debian Sarge. I have searched on the web about the 
port, and I think that it's possible to install a linux.

So, my questions are: 
it's posible to install a debian in a Octane?
if yes, 
it's very different than a i386?
Can I have a boot loader to chosee IRIX or Linux?

The box has an external cdrom (SCSI) and I don't have any experience in a SGI 
arch :-(

Regards,

Leo
