I just decided to bite the figurative bullet and upgrade my 3/50 from 3.5
to SunOS 4.1. Problem is, the 4.1 install won't boot off the tape. I've
got a 3/50 monochrome with a Toshiba 140mb disk and 60mb tape (standard
shoebox), and a Parity 4mb memory board. I drop to the prom and do a:
b st()install sd(0,0,1)
and get back:
invalid page bus error:
Vaddr: FEFE0038, Paddr: 00000038, Type 0, Read FC5, Size 4
Sun, of course, wants me to yank out the Parity board before they'll look
at it (and I don't blame them for that). However, that's a day of
downtime. Has anybody else out there on the net run into this, or have
any suggestions? I'd like to avoid tearing open the system if I can.
Thanks.
