FreeBSD does not (AFAIK) run on any Silicon Graphics machines.


During SGI's descent from greatness into obscurity they built Windows NT machines with Intel CPUs before embracing Linux. FreeBSD *should* run on those systems but IMO SGI performance and/or reliability doesn't justify their cost. OTOH if you are trying to resurrect free hardware then just "try it, nothing to lose." But at some point one must consider whether the cost of electricity to run old hardware is worth it.
