- Hello,
-
- I just recently installed unix onto my 486 and I'm having a couple of
- problems.
-
- 1. Sometimes when I try to open a file with ELVIS (vi) I get a
- "<file> is busy" message from the shell.
-
- 2. After being online for a couple of hours, the screen freezes and
- in the middle of the screen I get the msg "alarm clock". The keyword then
- locks up and I will have the reboot.
-
-
- Anybody have any insights on these problems.
-
- Thanks a bunch,
-
- Dave
