- Hello out there!
-
- 386BSD is great, but ...
-
- I do have the following problem:
-
- The UNIX-PC is connected via an WD8003E-Card to an HP 9000/345 Workstation.
- The Disc of the workstation is mounted via NFS. Doing an
- cp local_largefile foreign_largefile
- where local is on the PC-disc and foreign is on the disc of the workstation
- the system will hang after some time. Usually this happens after
- 100-1000KB of data beeing transfered. Well, let me say that the PC does
- not hang entirely, but the drive-light stayes on, and the following
- disc access will hang the machine.
- There must be something going wrong with the interrupt handling. This would
- explain why only reading fail, but writing to the local disc works. Perhaps
- we miss an interrupt, and the initated read is not served. But until now
- I was not able to track the problem down to where th things REALLY happen.
-
- Anyone out there with the same Problem, any suggestions?
-
