Thanks, Matt, for doing the tests. Marc, it's a good suggestion and
it's been "on my list" for some months now. I get nervous about
playing around with the kernel too much when I'm this far away,
because if it messes up, it screws the people there and I'm not at the
boot prompt to bring back the old kernel (Being able to say reboot -f
/vmunix.new would be cool, so if it fails and manages to crash it will
come up with /vmunix again. Or maybe that's too much a temptation to
disaster...). Jik, yup, you're right. And looking back in the
minutes, it says exactly that. Oops.
Other things are breaking as well, like rn. I'll take it up with
Athena. Anyone know if DEC's OSF release has AFS in it in an
intelligent way? That may be my easy way out (famous last words...).
Thanks for the help,
