Following is a little problem I have encountered recently which I hope some of you can help solve: VAX 11/780 running SYS 5 R II. Original Problem: I wanted to be able to boot unix from other than drive zero. Solution: Changed root, swap, and pipe in dfile to go to drive number 2 (020) Copied /stand/conflp/defboo.cmd to rp2boo.cmd, changed drive numbers. Did a config -t dfile Did a make Booted unix(new version) from drive 2 New Problem: Everything came up OK.....except that there was no ps table and I received an error message complaining about the inability to open drive 0 on controller 0. SOMETHING IS WRONG HERE! Any help???? -- Kip Quackenbush pthya!kdq {ihnp4,ucbvax,cbosgd,decwrl,amd,fortune,zehntel}!dual!pthya!kdq Pacific Bell, Hayward, California
