Hello list, Marcel!
As I already told you my company has bought an SGI-atlix 450.
As this testsystem is now not used anymore by anyone in the foreseeable future, I got the admission to try FreeBSD on it.

So what can I do to help bringing/running FreeBSD on this machine?
What are the first steps to take, because I can vaguely remember that install won't work out of the box from the released CD-images?

@Marcel: Have you made some progress on FreeBSD, Numa and your Altix?
       
Regards,
Marc Loerner
