We are currently developing a disk driver for SCO Xenix. It works except
for one esoteric nasty bug. 

Scenario: 
1) Read enough data through Xenix's buffer cache to flush old data out
2) Run a shell script
3) The error "cannot execute" occurs
4) Run the same or any other shell script
5) It works fine

Start over at one again and the same thing happens. 

Has anyone out there encountered a similar problem? How did you solve
it?

Please respond via e-mail to jhl@frith.egr.msu.edu

Advance thanx,
