Hi guys!,

Just wanted to say that my SGI Indy is now running NetBSD, of course,
version 6.1.5. Took a bit of figuring out to get it installed via the
network and setup to autoboot, but I got it done in the end. Still
find it quite amazing that I can run a new operative system on my old
indigo colored MIPS machine. Once I had sysinst up and running it was
easy, good old familiar sysinst.

I had some issues when reading the INSTALL.txt, well they were good
issues since I got to learn something about dhcpd, tcpdump, the SGI's
Boot PROM and got NetBSD installed and running in return.

Anyway, I attached the dmesg.boot if anyone is interested.

Take care guys!,
and thanks for all the ports.
