Hi,
after solving my first prblms in bringing up my dn570, and having it up
for some days without major prblms, a new one occured:
Sometimes, when I try to load new software from a catridge tape, the
attemp fails with the message:
"(..sth unexpected, etc.) tape controller timed out (OS/Tape Manager)"
^this part differs ^maybe not the exact words...
Sometimes, the installing program continues to load software from tape,
sometimes, the computer crashes for at least 5 minutes, or sometimes
total, so that i cant do a shut down :(
Has anyone had that problem before I had?
(And: the prblm does not show up always, and not always on the same tape, either)
Oh yes: When the computer crashed, all the red leds in the backward of the
tape controller mounted below the tape unit r on.
I hope someone can help!
frank
