[comp.sys.apollo] DN660/Domain 10.1 won't create shell

      I recently put my hands on a DN660 running Domain 10.1
   and I can't seem to get it to create a shell for me. It 
   appears to boot fine, but when I login it creates a pad
   and then tells me that it can't find the shell executable.
   It appears that it's having trouble finding anything that
   isn't in the root directory. If I bring it up to the Phase II
   shell and do an 'ld', it appears to list the files and directories
   in the root. If, however, I try to list any of these subordinate
   directories it fails with an error message stating that the
   OS/naming server couldn't find that name. 

      Please forgive me if this is a naive question, but it's 
   been about 6 years since I've worked with this hardware/software
   and evidently the neurons that held this info have departed for
   greener pastures.

      Thanks,


                                           Steve
