[comp.unix.wizards] Network Systems PI13 UNIBUS Interface question

ehrlich@psuvax1.psu.edu (Dan Ehrlich) (10/15/87)

Pertinent Information:
CPU:	VAX 11/750
OS:	4.3 BSD UNIX
device		hy0	at uba0 csr 0172410	vector hyint

We have recently installed some Network Systems HyperChannel hardware
into our vaxen.  I am trying to use the if_hy.c that came off of
orville.arpa with little success (this version is supposed to work,
unlike the version distributed with 4.3BSD).  It compiles without any
problems but when one tries to 'ifconfig hy0 .... up' the console
starts complaining about 'uba0: stray interrupt ipl 15 vec 300' until
you reset the system.  The auto config message for hy0 seems to be
correct so the probe routine appearently worked.  Tried swapping in
another PI13 with the same results.  Out of desparation I reset the
vector switches on the PI13 to be 0300.  New symptom: 'ifconfig hy0 ...
up' hangs the VAX.

Any hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in
advance.
