Linux on an SGI Onyx server



Hi Sriram,

You're unlikely to get Linux running on an Onyx any time in the near
future.  However, why not join the linux/SGI mailing lists and ask
there?  Someone may be able to ocme up with creative ideas :-)

The mailing list addresses are available off my Linux page:
