Nothing else runs on those boxen but IRIX.  Feel free to try and port
NetBSD though.  There are probably people who would like to run it.

On a related note, what version of the OS came with those machines?  If it
is 5.2, is there anyway I could get media (or copy of media) or a system
image or something from you?  A friend has a semi-similar box and we
really want to get it going.  It came OS free though.
