[rescue] External SCSI CDROM for SGI?

[Michaël Thanry]

Hello,

I must say I don't bother with CD drives for Irix installations anymore.

One of the guys on Nekochan build up a VM that embeds a samba/nfs/dhcp/
rsh/tftp server. All you have to do is copy your Irix Install CDs into
the Irix folder of the VM and you are good to go.
