Rackmount Prism Boot Sequence Video - kaigan - 12-31-2020
Hey, everyone,
As a part of trying to get more SGI content out into the wild, I've decided to start creating some videos on some of the lesser-known SGI systems, like my rack-mount Prism and Onyx4. In speaking with MassiveRobot over on the SGUG Discord, he suggested that even things such as the Prism startup sequence aren't well documented, so that seems like a good place to start.
This first video is very simple and just includes the uninterrupted startup sequence (both serial and video, once available) of the system through to login to a KDE desktop on SLES9. It's far from fancy and may not be the most interesting thing to many, but it's there for posterity, at least. I plan to do a full overview and teardown at some point in the future, though that will have to wait until I can make some more space in my office.
If you are interested, the video is below:
