Help!!!! At work (not this address), some people in our department
are running III-ATLAS (BLUE MAX) 6/10 MHz AT clones.  We are attempting
to get MS XENIX 2.00 (sys V to you and me) running on them.

Problems:
	1) BIGGIE!!! Periodically we get the announcement: 
		spurious hd interrupt.
	    
	   The alert is NOT a panic.  After this occurs, the hard
	   disk is trashed, and also the only way out appears to be
	   the big red switch (yecch -- file system crash)....  On
	   reboot, the system can't even find /boot.  It appears 
	   more often at 10MHz, but still shows up at 6 MHz.  Any
	   help would be amazingly appreciated.

	2) We can't talk on the serial ports in XENIX.  We are using
	   the manufacturers stock multi I/O card ("COURIER" -- 2 serial,
	   1 parallel, 1 game).  The serial ports work under DOS 3.3.  In
	   XENIX, we do an open("/dev/tty00",O_WRONLY); and the system
	   hangs.  A SIGINT will get us out of it.   Suggestions, answers,
	   religious opinions, etc....

	Post to the net and/or send E-mail to this UUCP address:
{humboldt,sdcrdcf,rdlvax,ttidca,}\_ csun!litvax!lits8k3!neugrosc
{psivax,csustan,nsc-sca,trwspf  }/

	Note that this is not the same as .signature!!!!

The above in no way reflects the opinions of CSUN, and a good thing
too, I might add, as they would be out of business in two days if
they paid any attention to me...
