You might be able to find a standalone copy of fx on ftp.sgi.com if you
don't have IRIX media.  Either way you're going to need to boot into the
command monitor from the boot prom and use a boot command to load up
standalone fx from some sort of media.  For an example of how to boot fx
off of media look here:
