[comp.sys.ibm.ps2.hardware] AIX 1.1 PANIC on PS/2 model 70

kkt@moscom.UUCP (Ken Tuttle) (09/05/90)

We are experiencing problems with some of our PS/2 Model 70s which are
running AIX 1.1.  The machines periodically get into a PANIC situation
attempting to access the disk.  The machine reboots as a result of the
panic.  The reboot is not always successful.

We have heard that the problem is caused by a hardware error in the disk
controller and that the error is not detected by diagnostics.

Has anyone had similair experience with the PS/2.  Does anyone have more
(accurate) information on the problem?
