I haven't noticed that it's all that bad so far, and for personal reasons I
HATE SGI. Anyway, at boot: the default kernel (2.4.9-benh0) doesn't load
because it says "image not found". After verifying that it is in fact there
by booting an old kernel on an ext2 partition, mounting up the drive and
checking that it's there. This leads me to believe that it just can't do
jfs on boot? All opinions on this matter are appreciated. Thanks.
