How to install NetBSD 2.0_BETA on a SGI O2 with MIPS R10000 CPU
---------------------------------------------------------------
Not yet tested with a O2 R5000, but should also work.
Download the Snapshot of NetBSD 2.0_BETA [1] from Christopher SEKIYA as he
had posted the information to the port-sgimips Mailinglist [2] and put it on
a local ftp server.

Setting up a tftpd Server, eg. comment out the following line in
/etc/inetd.conf and killall -HUP inetd:
tftp    dgram   udp     wait    nobody  /usr/libexec/tftpd      tftpd /tftpboot

Create the directory /tftpboot and gunzip
sgimips-2.0/binary/kernel/netbsd-INSTALL32_IP3x.gz to it as
/tftpboot/netbsd-INSTALL32_IP3x
Configure your DHCP Server to bootstrap the SGI O2 from a TFTPd Server,
add the following host entry and restart dhcpd:
host sgi-o2 {
hardware ethernet 08:00:69:05:fc:0f;    # the MAC address of the O2
fixed-address 192.168.1.10;     # the IP of the O2
filename "netbsd-INSTALL32_IP3x";   # the kernel file to load
server-name="192.168.1.2";      # the server which runs tftpd
}
Now the fun starts ;)
Boot up your SGI O2 and press  or click on "Stop for Maintenance"
button at the startup screen. A manpage can be found at [3].

Select "5. Enter Command Monitor"
Check with hinv for the disks/cdroms which are available:
> hinv
System: IP32
Processor: 195 Mhz R10000, with FPU
Primary I-cache size: 32 Kbytes
Primary D-cache size: 32 Kbytes
Secondary cache size: 1024 Kbytes
Memory size: 128 Mbytes
Graphics: CRM, Rev C
Audio: A3 version 1
SCSI Disk: scsi(0)disk(2)
SCSI CDROM: scsi(0)cdrom(4)
also check the current enviroments variables with printenv, the boot disk
(OSLoadPartition, SystemPartition) and the MAC address (eadddr) can be seen:
> printenv
AutoLoad=Yes
diskless=0
dbaud=9600
volume=80
sgilogo=y
monitor=h
TimeZone=PST8PDT
OSLoadPartition=pci(0)scsi(0)disk(2)rdisk(0)partition(0)
console=d
netaddr=192.168.0.2
SystemPartition=pci(0)scsi(0)disk(2)rdisk(0)partition(8)
OSLoadFilename=netbsd
osloadoptions=auto
OSLoader=boot
ConsoleOut=serial(0)
ConsoleIn=serial(0)
cpufreq=195
eaddr=08:00:69:05:fc:0f
Connect a null modem cable the the first com port of the O2 and to a free com
port on your computer and start a terminal programm (9600,8N1,RTS/CTS).
On the Command Monitor at the O2 change to boot up with the serial console:
> setenv console d
and reboot with:
> init
In a few seconds the system will boot up at the serial console, there press
 to again go into the Command Monitor and select again "5. Enter
Command Monitor".
Now set the IP address to the one configured in the dhcp server:
> setenv netaddr 192.168.1.10
either change SystemPartition to boot always from tftp with
> setenv SystemPartition bootp():
and boot with:
> boot
or boot with the following command from the Command Monitor:
> boot -f bootp():/netbsd-INSTALL32_IP3x
Now the NetBSD 2.0_BETA install kernel should be loaded, complete the
installation from the local ftp server. After the installation is finished,
reboot and go with  again to Command Monitor to set up booting
NetBSD from the local disk:
If the SystemPartition was changes before change it back to:
> setenv SystemPartition pci(0)scsi(0)disk(2)rdisk(0)partition(8)
And also set some other options (even if the SystemPartition was not
changed):
> setenv osloadfilename netbsd
> setenv osloadoptions auto
> setenv osloader boot
Now reboot to see if NetBSD boots up from the local disk
> init
If everthing went fine you should have a NetBSD running from the local disk.
