Hi all,
Newcomer, old problem (at least what I have been able to find
crawling around).
I have a 3100-10 (CPU KA41-D, ROM 263).
Connected a Quantum Fireball 540Mb on it:
>>>SHOW DEV
VMS/VMB ULTRIX ADDR DEVTYP NUMBYTES RM/FX WP DEVNAM REV
DKA400 RZ4 A/4/0/00 DISK 545MB FX
FIREBAL1Q09
Installed NetBSD 2.0 from CD (booting regularly from CD-ROM). To make
it simple: no X11, just one partition containing root and 128Mb
VirtualM.
Installation did perform without problems.
After installation was completed I restarted the system and issued:
>>>BOOT DKA400
To boot from the hard disk but in place of a conforting list of boot
msgs I got:
?43 FILESTRUCT
84 FAIL
Same as with a larger drive (IBM 2gb). I read around about partition
limitations on the 3100 but my drive is 540Mb, it does not seem to
fall in this cathegory.
Any suggestions?
ThX in advance.
Gabriele
