We are experimenting some problems installing 4.2 on a 11/785.
The configuration is as follows :
CPU 785
UDA with a RA81 + RA60
some DZ11's
TU77
The first part of the installation ( COPY , boot from the small kernel,
restore of root) was okay.
We have problems when we start moving files from the tape to the disk using
tar.
It seems (and I was told that somewhere in the world had the same problem )
that there are some problems when there is a large amount of UNIBUS transfers.
Is there anyone who fixed this problem or has some advises to go on with the
installation ?
Thanks a lot .
