>Hello everyone,
>
> I am a watchmaker who is working on Tom Coppeto's network
>installation kit. To test the IRIX software, I need to wipe out the hard
>disk on an SGI and reinstall it a couple of times. I have been told that
>andrew.mit.edu may be used for this purpose provided that I contact all
>interested parties. I will need the machine for about 2 days.
>
>In order for me to get started I need to know three things:
>
>1) Who will be inconvenienced by andrew's being out of commission for a
> couple of days?
>
>2) Where can I get an IRIX installation cd that one gets out-of-the-box?
>
>3) What is the procedure (or sequence of commands) to restore an SGI
> back to its athena-state?
>
>If anyone has answers to the above questions or suggestions, please
>send them to me!

>Thanks!
