I'm getting frustrated! We have a number of disks connected to the
XyLogics XY450 Multibus to SMD controller, and I have rebuilt
the /stand programs and the kernel to work with them. (I had to
change them since they aren't the Fujitsu Eagle that is the only
supported drive by Dynix 2.1.1....) I haven't been able to fix
the diagnostics software though - I seem to be missing the sources
to them! I'm not sure if they are supposed to be there or not, but
according to a Readme file in the /diag directory they should be...

I've tried to look at all our oldest backup copies of the system
software but I haven't been able to locate them. Now, if they are
supposed to be available - would it be possible for me to FTP them
from somewhere?

Btw, the source to the xpformat program wouldn't be available? (I'd
especially would like to be able to patch that program so that I
won't have to maintain a number of differently compiled xpformat
programs for each SMD disk type that we use...
