[comp.soft-sys.andrew] PL7 on a pmax

Craig_Everhart@transarc.com (10/10/90)

I was delighted that patch level 7 allowed me to build ATK on a pmax
(finally).  Everything works--except console, which core-dumps within a
minute of starting up.  That is, it generally displays everything,
updates itself, then rolls over and dies, leaving a core dump.

Does this ring any bells with anybody?  If not, where should I start to look?

		Thanks,
		Craig

Mine dies too, but not until something is printed to /dev/console. 
When this happens, console usually dies, but not always. 
The problem existed under Ultrix 3 as well as in PL6.

Under Ultrix 4, I also get no statistics collected even if getstats is
suid root. 

Chris.
