Hi,
I tried to install NetBSD/sgimips on a SGI O2 (IP32) yesterday. I
downloaded the sgimipscd-3.1.iso image via rtorrent. I tried to boot 
the CD with
 
  boot -f pci(0)scsi(0)cdrom(4)rdisk(0)partition(8)ip3xboot

(cdrom(4) is the correct SCSI-ID for the CD-ROM). However, the PROM
complains that there is no SGI Volume Header.

So, are there any other CDs with a correct Volume Header available? Or do I
have to create one my own, like described in [1]? Or is there anything else
I'm missing here?

Kind regards,
Daniel
