The NeXT I was using filled up its local disk (swap file grew while running Mathematica). Eventually the machine totally wedged and I had to power cycle it. Now when it boots it gets stuck trying to handle a page fault. There doesn't appear to be any way of doing file management from the monitor / debugger - or am I missing something? (Otherwise I would have tried emoving files.) Any ideas on how to fix this? Another complication: it's running afs and the problem comes up just after AFS loads. Is this the right group for this question - if not, where should I ask? -- Philip Machanick philip@pescadero.stanford.edu
