[comp.sys.apollo] SR10.1 patches

lray@uxh.cso.uiuc.edu (03/17/89)

Recently, a number of postings in here have mentioned problems with
SR10.1, including slowness, registry not working, and so forth.

The reason why is very simple.


The ethernet microcode at SR10.1 does not work. Actually, this is
an understatement.


There is a patch available from Apollo that, although it does not 
completely fix the problem, will make things work much better.

It is patch 18. 

There are also a number of kernal patches on my tape that may also
be affecting this.

I recommend ordering this tape asap if you have 10.1 and an sau7/8
machine.
