Rob Smyer reported swap space problems on

		eliot (an RT)
		eckbo (a VAXstation II)

To fix the RT, the software should be reinstalled (using the 64+ floppies,
using minidisk (init, standard, write, quit) before reinstalling. This will
partition the disk for the 7.1 release.

For the VAXstation II, I don't know what might be wrong. He should attach
the info locker, and run  /mit/info/identify_ws.csh
This will tell us how much memory his machine has, how much disk space, etc.
