- Hello,
- I have a HP 9000/300 system and I have a number of problems in
- getting it running to a stage I am happy with.
-
- System: HP9000/300 (68020 processor) 8m of ram
- 3 * HP 7945 (55M drives on hpib)
- HP9144 tape unit
- HPUX 7.0
-
- Problems:
- * I have 2 extra drives (HP7945s) each powers up with the fault
- light on.
- - On one of them, I can run mediainit and newfs but they both fail with
- a write error (a bad block?). How do I mark a bad block?
- - The other wont even attempt to work, I have been told that it has
- been scrubbed and lost its HP specific first sector or something.
- Is their any way to totally re initialise this drive?
- * I am attempting to compile gcc but I have to keep deleting things
- and moving files onto other drives as the file system fills. I dont
- have enough free space left to do a full compile. Does anyone have
- gcc compiled on this type of system??
-
-
- any help would be appreciated!
