You mean i should try to set other IDs than the correct one and see if it
works?

Some more informations,

1/ To make sure it's IRIX_64_,
        INST>shroot
        # uname -a
        IRIX64 IRIS 6.5 04101931 IP28

2/ Starting sash64 from "Installation tools CD",
        "command monitor"> dksc(1,2,8)sash64
Then i'm into controler0 ID1 partition 0 and can browse the installed IRIX.
Trying to boot here,
        sash: ./unix
Booting (some numbers...) and then first error msg:
        WARNING <snip><controler 1 ID 0><snip> Initial mount of root device
        <very little snip> block failed with errno 1011
Then second and final error msg:
        PANIC: vfs_mountroot: no root found
        [Press reset to restart the machine.]

3/ Even trying with some "root" variable in "command monitor",
>> setenv root dks0d1s0
Sames errors. With HD sash,
        "media not loaded"
with CD sash64,
        "vfs_mountroot: no root found"

Is there something wrong with my partition table (listed in some previous message)?
Advices are appreciated.
