Unfortunately the Octane (which is the one I want to get working) resides on a network where netboot is not allowed. Believe me, I've tried to do this. The Indy, happily netboots (on my home network). I tried to boot it and the Indigo2 from CD to test whether the problem what the Octane, that CD or the X-RC6 distribution. >>From my understanding the intention of the X-RC6 cd is not to provide the primary method of installing the OS. It is more of an experiment to see if what can be done and provide a quick "hey look what Linux can do" demo environment. I'm looking to use it for exactly that. Thanks!
