by I'm trying to install a temporary SCO 3.2.4.2 server to copy some DAT
tapes that we have laying around and I'm having nothing but problems.
I've got a DTC 3x80AS ISA SCSI card in a 486 machine with a Segate
ST11200N drive on the internal bus and a HP 35480A DAT drive on the
external bus (all the termination is done properly to the best of my
knowledge.) The system installed without a hitch from diskette and
will boot and run fine. I can dump the root partition to a tape
without any problems, however, when I try to "tar tvf /dev/nurStp0" or
"tar xvf /dev/nurStp0" I get the following message:
PANIC: timeout on swingrw
DOUBLE PANIC: already in dtcintr
Can anyone advise me as to what the problem could be and how to fix
it?
Thanks in advance!
