Hello, I work at my school radio station as a member of the web department. Currently, we stream audio over the 'net using an NT computer (I serve the html from a Debian box sitting in my room)...we recently had an SGI Indy500 donated to the department, and would really like to use it as the streaming server if at all possible. Needless to say, I'd like to load linux on it (currently it's equipped with IRIX). does anyone have any experience with this? SGI has made available a "Hard Hat" distro of a modified Red Had 5.1...am I correct in assuming that whatever software is available for linux can simply be compiled on the machine to run on it?
thanks! -lev
