Sun3/60 Boot Problem

One for the Sun wizards...

We have a Sun3/60 with a CDC Wren III 141MB drive which has trouble 
booting.

Since the machine has no tape drive of any sort (ugh), and we are unable
to boot from the disk (label corrupted) we've had to boot diag from across 
the network.  The host for this process is a standalone Sun3/160 running 
SunOS 3.4.  Using the procedure described in the Sun installation manual,
we've made the 160 "look and feel" like an nd server.

Diag boots up fine, but just as you finish supplying configuration values 
and it appears ready to talk to the disk controller, we get the message:

  Invalid Page Bus Error:
  Vaddr: FFFFD804, Paddr: 00001804, Type 0, Write, FC 5, Size 2 at 0000D572

and back to monitor-mode we go.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
