I was able to get my new OS running over the net. Kernel loads, NFS
mounts root filesystem and .... this is all I can
do. The next step should be :
1. Mount your local disks.... how can I do that? How can I mount disks
on SGI/Linux? Do I need to format my
drive? What tools should I use?
2. Download all RPMS .... done
3. use command ' rpm --root=/mnt -Uvh *rpm ' ..... even I couldn't mount
my drive I checked, whether I could use rpm
command - it just doesn't exist in my root filesystem. Anybody has any
experiences with installing SGI/Linux?
Thank you for ANY help!

I believe that with your current setting that's what you can do.
You may mount additional remote disks via NFS but not local ones
as is. The local disks are probably in formats that the current
snapshot of the port doesn't recognize (EFS or XFS). Mike Shaver
was working in his spare time (he also needs to make a living :-)
on read-only EFS support.
To mount a local disk you need to go through a pretty complex
sequence that was discussed on this list before.
For a full archive of the list check-out:

We are working on a better installation and setup.

don't want to disturbe ... maybe i didn't get the right mailing list, but general sounds good ....
today i tried to compile a newer kernel version ... i thought i made anything right so far ... but things aren't always as easy as they seem to be, especially for a newbie ...
configured kernel, created bzImage, modules ... installed them in the correct paths ... configured lilo.conf and executed lilo ...
as result first "anything" works fine, while reboot, until lilo tries to load the new kernel:
Loading kernelxyz .... -> black screen: but the laptop ( gericom webshocks,with mini - pci - bussytem ) still seems to work in the background ...
still i would be glad if anybody, who knows what went wrong, could take some time and give me a hind about troubleshooting
THX DK :)
