we're still running old Ultrix 1.2 on our uVAX-II/GPX. the windowing
system (X11/Decwindows) with 3.0 just messed us up more than anything
else. my biggest complaint with 1.2 is the speed (or lack there of) of
dumps. is there an optimal setting (density, lenght, blocking factor, etc.)
to do dumps onto a TK50 drive. as it is, it takes over 6 hours to perform
a level 0 dump of an 80 Meg partition.

thanks,
