System name:		lyre
Type and version:	MVAX-II 7.2L
Display type:		QVSS

What were you trying to do?
	Read a filesystem on a floppy mounted read-only.

What's wrong:
	Kernal panic'd after accessing the fs.

What should have happened:
	nirvana

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	% mount -r /dev/ra1c /mnt2
	% ls /mnt2
	(wait a few seconds)
	panic...

	Thinking it might be a bogus configuration on lyre, I
	tried E40-355-1, also a VSII, with the following /etc/version:

	  installed on Tue Nov 20 16:50:55 EST 1990
	  Athena RVD (VAX) Version 7.1H Mon Oct 14 12:14:12 EDT 1990
	  Athena Install (VS2) Version 0.0A Tue Nov 20 16:50:56 EST 1990
	  Athena Workstation (VS2) Version Update Tue Nov 20 16:56:16 EST 1990
	  Athena Workstation (VS2) Version 7.1H Tue Nov 20 16:58:49 EST 1990
	  Athena Workstation (VS2) Version Update Wed Jan  2 15:55:30 EST 1991
	  Athena Workstation (VS2) Version 7.2P Wed Jan  2 16:00:47 EST 1991

	and got identical results.

	No vmcore due to insufficient space.
