We are converting a 4.3bsd Vax 11/750 system to Ultrix 3.0. The 750 has a System Industries 9900 controller and two Fujitsu 2351 Eagle drives. The Eagles are called 9751's by System Industries. The disk utilities supplied by SI for 4.3 bsd do not work under Ultrix. Does anyone have a set of the SI utilites that will operate under Ultrix that they could send me ? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You -- Mark Nichols mnichols@nmsu.edu Systems Programmer Networking / Workstation Support New Mexico State University

Any help would be greatly appreciated. The 4.3 BSD stand-alone formatting utilities should be able to format the controller drive combination you mention. For that matter, there is no need to "reformat" the drives at all - the low level format is the same, and even the filesystems need only be fsck'ed (as long as it's not 4.3 tahoe). -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@uunet.uu.net Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)
