I've got this problem with Ultrix 4.0 and some diskless clients. I've just
installed 4.0 on the server (a DECstation 3100 called zeus) which seems to be
running fine, and have followed the manuals exactly to try and set up a couple
of clients (cronos and odin). Trouble is, they get part way through the boot
process and then hang. The last messages to appear on the console are:

root on zeus:/dlclient0/cronos.root
swap on zeus:/dlclient0/cronos.root/dev/swap
swap size - 32768 blocks

and then a total lock...

I've tried all I can think of to figure this one out, anybody got any ideas?
