re: 18.80.0.250 (scharoun.mit.edu)

this decstation was recently returned to 9-526.
i tried to use it friday, but it failed to function.

the first symptom was that it 'froze' (ie did not respond to mouse, keyboard,
or network).
when i attempted to reboot it, it behaved as follows:
 1. it failed immediately after the 'Ultrixboot ..' message
 2. it did that a second time (autoboot is enabled)
 3. the third time it got past the 'Ultrix Worksystem' message, but
    produced a message from 'ufs_swapconf' that it could not open
    'swap device (8,9)'
 4. went into single user mode.

please contact me at either x3-0782 or x3-7661

thanks.
james anderson
