Hello uVAX-NetBSD users!
I have two uVAXII's running NetBSD-1.0A and I'm planning on upgrading to
1.1 so I've been trying to get my RD53's to function correctly. I get
plenty of errors and I'm thinking they can use a low-level format.
Is there any way I can format these on a PC or some other system. I don't
have the field maint kit so I can't format them on the VAX. I do have
access to the VAX-Ultrix 4.4 CD-ROM. Is there a way I can mount the CD
via NFS and use the software on it to low-level format the drives?
Thanks in advance,
-Rob
P.S. I have tcsh binaries compiled and I'm working on some other things
so if there is any interest I can place them on a FTP server. Just mail me.
