The first thing to do is to verify that you do indeed have the
documentation installed on the disk.

First, some background.  Lispms have two native filesystems, the FEP
FS and the LMFS (Lisp Machine filesystem, pronounced "limfuss").  The
LMFS is built on top of the FEP FS, and a LMFS consists of a number of
FEPFS files called LMFS partitions.  That's what your
FEP10:>lmfs.file.1 is.

Now, Genera finds out what partitions make up the local LMFS by
scanning a small FEP text file that is usually FEP0:>fspt.fspt.  (You
can change it with the Set LMFS FSPT Unit FEP command.)  That file
should contain the line "FEP10:>lmfs.file.1".

Assuming everything is set up right, you can browse around the LMFS
with Genera command processor commands like ":Show Directory
LOCAL:>*.*.*" and ":Show File".  Let us know what you see.

I can think of two likely problems.  One is that the machine just
didn't come with the documentation files, in which you'll need to talk
to Symbolics about getting a set.  The other is that the system
translations are wrong.  I.e., you have the documentation files in the
LMFS, but the system is looking in the wrong place for them.  If that
is the case, check out the file SYS:SITE;SYS.TRANSLATIONS and point
the SYS host translations to the right place.
