IRIX 6.2 Network Install?
Is there a relatively uncomplicated way to install IRIX 6.2 over a network with Ubuntu?

Thanks.

RE: IRIX 6.2 Network Install?
You can probably use the network install tutorial for NetBSD/IRIX 6.5 but you will need to modify it for both the Linux env and for the IRIX 6.2 discs.

Any tutorial that says you need bootp() is outdated and potentially problematic. I do have some 6.2/5.3 media on the ftp.

Technical problems should be sent my way.
