Message-ID: <3760@umbc3.UMBC.EDU> Date: 16 Aug 90 15:56:20 GMT Sender: newspost@umbc3.UMBC.EDU Reply-To: greg@umbc3.umbc.edu (Greg Sylvain,Lib 007a,3929,6445148) Organization: University of Maryland, Baltimore County Lines: 18 Hello again, I'm curious,could someone explain to me the reasoning behind restricting the 300 machines to having only 1 partition per disk. The same disk's can be used between machines (300&800), I believe. And supposedly both 300's and 800's are running the same verion of the os, so theoretically, the functionality should be identical (?) between architectures. Just curious, Thanks, greg Greg Sylvain Academic Computing Services Systems Programmer UUCP: ...!{uunet}!umbc5!greg Internet (Arpa) : greg@umbc5.umbc.edu BITNET : GREGS@UMBC
