I just received a shiny new Maxtor 4380E to install into
my RT model 125.  I ordered the disk with the short index
pulse option.  The problem comes when I try to install the
disk.

I'm running AIX 2.2 and I know that I have to format the
disk under the VMF to create the configuration record.  I
have set the disk to DS 2 and I have pulled the terminating
resistors (the disk goes into slot E).

Here's the problem:  When I boot the VRM install disk (which
contains the VMF), the LEDs cycle through the numbers and
get stuck at 35.  If I change the DS jumper (to 1 for 
example), then the VRM loads but says it can't find the
disk.  Same sort of problems if I install the Maxtor
as drive C with no other drives in the system.

What am I missing?  If anyone has successfully installed
a Maxtor 4380E under AIX 2.2 in an RT model 125 please
mail me a description of what you did to install the
disk.

Thanks
