Dept. of Water Resources, Sac. Lines: 12 Lately my 3b1 seems to be possesed,out to get me, or having a nervous breakdown. I am using a standard configuration (smgr, wmgr, etc.) and have recently installed the FIXDISK2.0 from osu. Now, I can't get mail to work on the RS232 port, I can't dial into the 3b1, either the phone does not answer or I get a zillion "Welcom...." prompts, and when I try to call out from the 3b1 (using the call screen), I get the message "/dev/tty000 interrupted system call". And now to top everything else, I seem to have several disk areas that are or are about to go bad. Backups?, only of my account, need to try and do ones of /usr/bin and some of the others before I reformat. Anyone else have similar problems, and or suggestions for me. Thanks in advance.
