I remember tha I ran into one problem that I didn't expext. The devfs
RPM on the installer CD has a different /etc/modules.devfs file than the
updated RPM's from oss.sgi.com. I just wondered why the system behaved
strange after upgrading the kernel and found that downgrading the devfs
RPM resolved my problem.
