When it comes to SGIs, there are lots of reasons why not NetBSD.
Mainly, if I wanted a head on an Indy, I wouldn't want anything other
than Irix.  For that matter, on a headless machine there is the question
of support for the various wide scsi, fast ethernet, FDDI, and ATM
cards.  If I wanted a stock indy headless, I would certainly consider
NetBSD though.
