Notes

  • Use eth0/Gb0 for the mathstudentorgsnet connection

potassium-citrate

Potassium-citrate is a dual-processor Alpha machine. It is on extended loan from one of our members. Needs 'rootdelay=15' kernel argument to boot. Might have bad memory? Needs to be looked into.

sodium-citrate

Sodium-citrate is an SGI O2 machine.

In order to net boot you need to set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_no_pmtu_disc to 1. When the O2 boots, hit F5 at the boot menu and type bootp():.

strombola

Strombola is our newest, shiniest office terminal and has a decent videocard suitable for work with graphics and rendering

Specs
Speakers

Strombola has integrated 6 channel sound and the office speakers are currently connected to it.

Lisp machine

A recently acquired Symbolics XL1200 Lisp machine. dseagrav [at] lunar-tokyo.net wants us to drop him an email if we ever get it running, or anybody ever dumps the ROM images from it.

http://www.globalnerdy.com/2008/12/03/symbolics-xl1200-lisp-machine-free-to-a-good-home/ for some history on this hardware.

Specs

Currently inoperable due to (at least) a missing console cable.
