Lai) Newsgroups: comp.unix.sysv386 Subject: ESIX 4.03A Message-ID: <1016@rodan.cs.utexas.edu> Date: 23 Jun 91 19:42:40 GMT Organization: UTexas CS Dept, Austin, Texas Lines: 29 I have an Adaptec 1542b and a Fujitsu 2263SA hard drive and I just upgraded from ESIX 3.2.D to ESIX 4.03A. The installation process insisted on killing my old ESIX 3.2.D, so I let it do that. At first, I asked for a UFS /usr partition in addition to the defaults. Right after the root partition had been successfully initialized, ESIX died either while it was initializing /usr or after it had done so. I reinstalled and used only the default partitions. This time I got the following error messages: Creating /stand file system on /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0sa Disksetup: Unable to mount /mnt/stand Disksetup: Bad file number Cannot create/mount the /stand filesystem. Please contact your service representative for further assistance. I hoped that this was the result of bad diskette(s) instead of a bug, so I reinstalled ESIX 3.2.D and computed the checksums of the first three base disks. The results are: 45495 2400 base-1 14842 2400 base-2 8201 2400 base-3 I need to have my system up (to use long file names) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. Will someone please verify these numbers for me? Thanks. Glenn glenn@cs.utexas.edu
