I missed the earlier DTK discussion (crash caused loss of news feed)
but have had some experience.  A 25 Mhz cache board purchased one
year ago (PEM2500?) runs ISC 2.0.2 ok, but fails randomly with
1542 SCSI board though it passes the board's on-board tests: I finally
had to swap it out.  An older Wedge motherboard (20 Mhz, no cache)
is less flashy but runs reliably.

Anyone have copies of the earlier DTK discussion?
