Almost all SGI-based machines here: - SGI IP19/Indigo R4000 (speed unknown) - SGI IP22/Indy R5000 (dead RTC at the moment) - SGI IP26/Indigo2 R8000 - SGI IP27/Onyx2 R14000 x4 @ 500MHz - SGI IP27/Origin 200 R12000 x2 @ 360MHz - SGI IP28/Indigo2 R10000 - SGI IP30/Octane R14000 x2 @ 600MHz - SGI IP30/Octane R12000 x2 @ 400MHz - SGI IP32/O2 RM7000 @ 350MHz - SGI IP32/O2 R10000 @ 250MHz (I think) - SGI IP35/Fuel R14000 (I think) - SGI IP35/Origin 300 R14000 x4 @ 500MHz - SGI IP35/Tezro R16000 x4 @ 700MHz Also have a Cobalt RaQ2 that might be salvageable, and I recently picked up a Cobalt Qube2 that probably works (but I haven't powered it up yet). Doubtful either of those can handle modern Linux, since their RAM is capped at 256MB, and current gcc probably needs a lot more than that to even build. I've enough spare parts that I can probably cobble together an RM5200-based O2, the same CPU class as in the Cobalt devices (CPU_NEVADA), should testing on that kind of CPU be needed (PMC Sierra-based, not NEC, so there are differences). -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS kumba@gentoo.org rsa6144/5C63F4E3F5C6C943 2015-04-27 177C 1972 1FB8 F254 BAD0 3E72 5C63 F4E3 F5C6 C943 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
