Message-ID: <70@hirst1.UUCP> Date: Mon, 6-Aug-84 23:35:51 EDT Article-I.D.: hirst1.70 Posted: Mon Aug 6 23:35:51 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 9-Aug-84 04:49:58 EDT Organization: Hirst Research Centre Lines: 13 We run 4.1BSD on a VAX11/780 with a single disk, a RA81. Since the beginning, sporadic unexplained disk faults occurred. These faults recently reached an intolerable rate. We tried to install 4.2BSD, but to no avail: the disk goes offline during the process. (DEC told us that such problems did not occur under 4.2.) If you have a similar configuration, experienced similar problems and solved them OR, if you have the same configuration (only one RA81 on a 780), we would be very grateful to hear from you.
