Hi.
I am trying to bring up a Sprite cluster. [1]
I was able to get the demo system running on a SPARCstation 1+ by dd-ing
the boot image to a disk. Now I wane label an additional disk, make LFS,
... make the new disk bootable to get more free disk space then I have
on the premade boot image. But I can't get a label on the disk with
labeldisk nor did I succeed using fsmakeprompt. The later crashes...
Next step is to bring a SPARCstation 2, an IPX and two ELCs into the
cluster.
Is there someone out there with Sprite experience who can help me?
Additionaly I was not able to get the PMAX image to work on my
DECstation 5000/240 nor my DECstation 3100. Any ideas? Do I really need
a DECstation 5000/200 for this?
[1] http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/Research/Projects/sprite/
A mixed architecture, distributed single system image OS capable of
process migration that presented the cluster to a user as a single,
large multiprocessor machine. Pmake and LFS (Log-Structured File System)
originate from Sprite.

Just watched a Stephen Hawking documentary last night; looks
like he was wrong: time does go backwards when the universe
contracts (as it's apparently doing) - the cctalk archive
already has messages from 2008 & 2025 :-)

I guess I should have been more clear. These are just cards, not complete
systems.

Hello list,
Just a quick question: I've been offered an IBM AS/400 Model B10. Is there
anything interesting I can do with it, or interesting software I can run on
it? I'll leave 'interesting' open to your own interpretation.
Regards,
Mark

Depends if the screen display is static [constant content].
If constant, use a tripod and go slow [>1/60 Sec].
If the display is changing rapidly....
Again on a tripod from a fixed location...
1) 1 Shot with the shutter speed / f-stop balanced for the overall shot (don't worry about the screen)
2) A series of shots at a FAST shutter speed (1/500 or 1/1000) to capture the screen. It takes some playing to get a good composition [for *MY* monitor (21" Viewsonic) 1/1000 and f5.6 from a distance of about 5" on MY Olympus camera, is usually the center point for my bracket.
Then with the wonders of digital photography....cut and paste..
