Altered /etc/rc to set -noecc on the SMC11, and ssm(1) and sm(4) to match, as a result of info from Terabit: MCT now admits that the ECC circuits in the SMC11 are buggy and should not be used. It's a bit academic here, since some experience with spurious ECCs early in bringing V7 up led me to fix the driver so it retries before trying an ECC correction; this, plus avoiding bad blocks on the disk, has kept us from ever having a real ECC correction.
