[comp.unix.microport] Dell 310

asp@puck.UUCP (Andy Puchrik) (11/18/88)

I'm interested in the above with adequate memory.  Is anyone successfully
running V/386 on a Dell 310 with 4 or more Megs of memory?  Have you seen
any problems?

  I have been told by someone in Dell that there is a motherboard fix if
your system has problems running any flavor of UNIX. It isn't clear if
the fix is a repair of MB swap. I believe that the new units have the
problem fixed.

  Yes, I saw it, and going to REAL fast memory cured it in my case.
Doesn't seem to happen under DOS.
