I want to install Ultrix on a VAXserver 3600 remotely. I have Ultrix 4.3 on CD-ROM, and the 3600 only has tape. So, I set up RIS on a system with CD-ROM to accept the 3600, but when booted via Ethernet and after selecting the drive for the root filesystem, it fails, complaining that the system could not be found in risdb, but it is in fact there. A second attempt claims it cannot access the drive (RA82). Can anyone tell me how to get around this? ======================================================================= Brian O'Neill - Systems Manager, Computer Science (508) 934-3645 University of Massachusetts at Lowell Internet: oneill@ulowell.edu Moderator, comp.binaries.ibm.pc
