Has anyone seen this problem?  We have been getting a fair number of SBI faults
logged in the error log on a 785.  There do not seem to be any effects from
this except the error log entries.  The entires claim that the error is
an unexpected read fault by TR#8 (a massbus adapter).  The only massbus device
is a single TM78 which is not is use when the errors occur.  Digital Field
Service has tried replacing the RH780 boards and the memory boards.  This
has not made the problem go away.  Of course, it is an intermittent problem,
so the diagnostics never see it.  Has this happened to any systems you know of?
If so, how was it resolved?
