Hi Lou & Co.
I took a look at 'mansard' in 9-514. It was missing a lot of files
when it tried to boot, so I tried to re-load software on it. For some
reason, it is being stubborn and won't do it.
I'm using server 18.179.0.20 (tkl)
setenv diskless 1
setenv osloader unix
setenv netaddr 18.89.0.73
setenv systempartition "bootp()tkl:/athena-sgi62-50xl"
It says
No server for tkl:/athena-sgi62-50xl/unix.
Your netaddr environment variable may be set incorrectly, or
the net may be too busy for a connection to be made.
Unable to load bootp()tkl:/athena-sgi62-50xl/unix: could not connect to remote server.
The network cable is fine... I swapped it with the machine I'm
currently using. On the front of the machine it says "Indy", but
not "r5000", if that matters.
