Lansing Lines: 16 Keywords: XENIX ESDI Crash I just got a Compaq20/130 and am also haing some mysterious problems. It refuses to copy files from DOS diskettes, or it it does it hangs and the end truncating the file. XENIX tar files are ok. Also my Everex tape drive won't work. Works under DOS but XENIX can't open it and sometimes tries to read from the floppy drives even though rct0 is referenced. I ran mkdev tape, set pararmeters and relinked the kernal. Anyone with similar problems? Any possible solutions? --------------------------- LARRY SHIELDS UUCP: ...!ihnp4!msudoc!lunapark!larry P.O. Box 6159 BIX: lshields E.
