I just tried that image on my Indigo 2 (IP22 > R4400@200MHz), and it
failed to boot. I noticed that other postings on this list hint as well
that this image is not as bootable, as we all may wish.
May be I'm doing it wrong, but I don't really think so, since the
3.99-image -does- boot. It only fails in that it floods the screen with
this lil green "int0: unexpected local0 interrupt 0"-messages, which
also have been mentioned before (I think even by myself, but definitely
by others) on this list.

The error-message I get when trying to boot the sgimipscd-3.0.iso is

dks1d6s5: volume header not valid
Unable to load scsi(1)cdrom(6)rdisk(0)partition(8)aoutboot: no
recognizable filesystem on device.

I tried ip2xboot and aoutboot. aoutboot works on 3.99, except for those
green message flooding the screen on each keystroke / character written
on screen far beyond readability. (Funny thing though is, that the
error-message is perfectly fine readable...)
