[rescue] Re: $25 Indy?

Erm.  Linux runs to some extent or other on most SGI systems (working on
all, anyone wanna help? <Grin>).  SGI Origins run fine, 200s are fully
supported, everything but XIO is supported on o2000s (no demand).  O2s
boot, and will hopefully soon have a gfx drive.  Indigo2s run, but again
no gfx, challenge S ~= indy, Challenge M or DM (I forget which) ~= i2, L
and XL are unsupported for now.
