NetBSD has reasonably good O2 support, but I think two issues would be
showstoppers:
- No XFS support
- Support for non-R5K O2s is not great (I'm not even sure if they boot).

Linux would be the best choice, I think, as it has XFS support. That said,
I just checked the Debian MIPS port page[1] and I see only R5K O2s are
supported. Hrm.
