Option to boot IRIX from network
Hello all,

Most (if not all) forum posts or pages I have come across only discuss netbooting an IRIX or OS installer, not the OS itself. I've tuned unxmaal's booterizer to my liking and can install IRIX to internal drives no problem.  My question is this:

Is it possible to boot an SGI machine using an IRIX OS on a network drive? If so, how? Ideally I'd like to have the file system hosted on a raspberry pi or something and the SGI use the system for operation. I specifically have an Octane, but would be curious if other machines are capable, if any.

Thank you
