SGI graphics demos - sjk - 02-21-2020

I've recently received my first SGI machine, an Indy. It came with various things installed on it such as SGI graphics demos (buttonfly, etc). I decided to do a format and fresh install of IRIX from a set of original 6.5 + 6.5.22 discs, but it now no longer has the demos. I had assumed that they were a standard part of IRIX, but I guess not.

Would anyone be able to direct me to where I can get the demos from? I searched and found http://jrra.zone/sgi which used to host them, but that site no longer works.

Even though I know the Indy won't run them well (if at all) I'd also like to check out the O2 and Octane demo discs purely out of interest.

Thanks cascatino. You're right - jrra.zone is back online. It was down the other day so I thought it was probably gone.
