[comp.os.coherent] lp* troubles, fsck problems

zap@netcom.COM (Paul Eastham) (06/18/91)

I know that this topic has been discussed many times, but despite all the
fixes recommended in the mailing list archives and the usenet archives on
piggy, I am still unable to get ANY of the lp* or lpt* drivers to work.
I've tried the fix in the 3.0.0 errata to no avail, I've installed 3.1.0
with no change.  Needless to say, lpr doesn't work either.

Also, A more troubling problem:  Approximately twice a week, after booting
up coherent after using DOS, the initial fsck gives me about 20 file system
problems (ie bad free list, doubly ref'd I-numbers, etc) on the root file-
system.  I'm at a loss to understand why...I ALWAYS follow the prescribed
shutdown procedures.  I have spoken to several other troubled Coherent sysadmins
with similar problems. 

Has anybody out there had any similar problems/experiences/solutions?
Any help/feedback will be greatly appreciated.
