    Hi,

    I just wondered if it is possible to clone a system
    (IRIX6.5.22m) from an Indy to an Indigo2.

    When cloning disk from Indy to Indy I know
    I have to reinstall graphics subsystems if the
    graphics is different. I haven't tried to clone from
    R4K to R5K but I assume there are some other
    subsystems that needs to be reinstalled to.

    Providing the Indigo2 is R4K family will it be
    sufficient to reinstall graphics sybsystem,
    or are there so many different systems that
    it is better to do a fresh install on the I2 and
    then copy the common files?

    /Bjorn
