- One of our 4 Apollo 2500 seems to be very sick. First it's scsi died-
- large large numvber of reseeks. Then the ethernet seemed to have died-
- trying to boot off another machine, it will start a load, and then die
- in the middle of it. Finally I got it to load the self tests from it's
- own sick disk, (having had it die in the middle of th load from another
- machine 10 times) but it never got anywhere- it frooze before it said
- memory test, the first item on the self test. So, is it scrap, or is
- there something simple I could try first?
