i would like to thanks all those who so quickly responded to my request for help concerning an emulex sc7000/eagle/ultrix combination. what i did end updoing was using chpt to put the disk partition table out on the eagle, rather than use the table embedded in the hp driver. it became apparent that dec had changed the driver stuff when they did ultrix, as the partition tables by default are read from the physical drive, either from partition a or c. it was suggested that we attempt to fool the system into thinking that the drive was an expanded rm02, but the controller got really confused when i booted in `rm02 mode'. i am now awaiting the arrival of the formatting/diagnostic floppy from emulex, as newfs experienced a few write errors. once again, thanks all!
