(Maynard Tape Drives) Summary: Maynard + Excelan networking = trouble Message-ID: <5302@ucdavis.ucdavis.edu> Date: 11 Sep 89 22:21:11 GMT Sender: uucp@ucdavis.ucdavis.edu Reply-To: tuck@iris.ucdavis.edu (Devon Tuck) Organization: Hydrologic Engineering Center, Davis CA. Lines: 12 I recently received a Xenix driver for my Maynard "Maynstream" tape backup system, and it appears that Maynard has chosen a name for a low-level interrupt which is identical to one in Excelan's "Xenix Lan Workplace." Maynard has taken responsibility for correcting the problem, and may get around to fixing it one of these months, but in the meantime... You must create two versions of the Xenix kernel: one with networking and no archival caps, and the other with the Maynstream driver, and no networking. At the "boot:" prompt, enter the name of your "archiving" kernel, or just press return to get the networked kernel. Devon Tuck (tuck@iris.ucdavis.edu)
