I've seen a similar problem on a model 60.  It tuurned out to
be an incompatible set-up file for an option board.  Strip out
all the boards that you cant configure with a standard config
disk.  Then one at a time put 'em back in.  In my case it
was an AST memory expansion.  If the memory board isn't set-
up correctly it will ock the system this way. BTW it took an
IBM field tech 4 days to figure this one out.  So much for
"superior" architecture!
