			Hi all,

I am going to install Ultrix V2.0 on a MVAX-II soon. But before I do that
I would like to ask a few questions:

	(1)	The installation guide says that the NFS subset MUST be
		loaded. However, the Advanced Installation Guide says
		that the subset in OPTIONAL. Which one is correct?
	
	(2)	I saw bug reports about NFS some time ago, but I didn't
		read them. Is is advisable to use the NFS version in V2.0?
	
	(3)	Are there any other (fatal) bugs in Ultrix V2.0 (i just heard
		about one in rename(2)). Should I avoid the install of V2.0
		(we currently use V1.1)? (This question sounds a little
		dump, I know. But I ask anyway...!).

Thanks in advance,

	Klaus Elmquist Nielsen

Don't run it.  It can trash your file systems.  I think the
bug is fixed in Ultrix v2.2.	-- Art Z. ]
