I have access to an HP 700 for a week to evaluate it and I'm trying to
get AMD5.2 going on it (we can't cope with machines without automounters
round here).  The 700 is running HP-UX 8.01.

I have compiled AMD5.2, but it works only intermittently.  I'm seeing
a lot of problems with error-hooks and mounting multiple copies of
filesystems.  I am about to try and find an alpha release of AMD5.3,
but I thought I'd ask here as well.

Has anyone else had these problems and (even better) solved them?

Jo
