HELP!!!!!!!!!!
I am having some very annoying problems with an Apollo DN4500 running SR 10.2
of the OS, 6.7 of the C compiler, and 1.2.2 of the C++ compiler. I have the
machine on loan from my local HP office for some development work and it came
pre-installed, although I did install the C++ compiler myself. I also installed
NFS, but I doubt it should be causing any problems.
All of the problems are intermittent, but very frustrating. Hopefully someone
out there will be able to tell me how to fix them.

1.) REBOOTING PROBLEM:
Loading Init
Fault status 80080009, PC 819F4A
fa 3B32C004 (write)
d0-7: 48 40 4 7 880E00 3B3C7400 0 26A
a0-7: 3B32BFAC 3B348000 3B32BFF4 3B348220 3B3C74A4 891074 3B3C5368 3B3C3184
Unhandled signal status 80080009
)
NOTE: After I tell it to `go' a couple of times, it finally does boot up.
2.) LOGIN PROBLEM:
I get the cute motif login window, I enter my username and password, I get
the familiar grey background, but instead of my xclients starting up it kicks
me back to the login window. After several tries at this it usually lets me
in. It doesn't always behave like this, but often enough that I avoid logging
out.
3.) LOADER PROBLEM:
%loaner(1): cc -o main main.c
Fatal error in /bin/ld
Status 023
%loaner(2): cat main.c
main()
{
}
%loaner(3):
I have loaded up to 1 meg executables without any problem, but every so often
the loader gets upset and refuses to load anything.
I also have had another problem with the loader where it will complain about
the .sri and .mir portions of libXt.a. But again it usually does work and I can
run the executables generated.

It must be remembered that there is nothing more difficult to plan, more
doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage, than the creation of a
new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would profit by
the preservation of the old institutions and merely lukewarm defenders in
those who would gain by the new ones.
