Subject: Re: Need help with a 11/23+ and a M8061 RL02 card.
I'd have to
look but I though the BA23 had four of the slots AB, then
the rest were AB/AB
serpentine below that.
Sounds like the wrong slot for the RLV21 controller. Try putting a bus
grant in that AB slot
and moving everything down.

Everything works except the M8061. Jumpers are set to Factory default.
I did add the Q22 jumper just in case. There is always a chance its a bad
controller card.
The drive will come on line but that's about it. If I try to boot from it. i
get
an
error, 'no controller' . If its running under RT11, booted off the RX02 , I
get
'cant read directory'
Any words of wisdom out there
Thanks, Jerry
What are the CSR's for the RX02 controllers? Any chance you have two set the
same? I assume you have a drive # >plug in the front of the RL02 drive? Also, do you have another RL02 drive to test as
well?
Yes, thats on my list. Does the system consider the RL02 drive and
M8029 controller card as one ??? Or does 'controller not found" mean
much.
Since you have an RQDX1 or RQDX2, you may be
using a BA23 box.
Otherwise, how have you connected your hard drive? And can you use
your hard drive on the M8639 controller?
Even with a BA23, since the M8029 is in the third slot, there should not
be a problem with the M8061, especially if the M8639 is working.
Yes it is a BA23
box and the M8639 does boot the RX50 and Hard drive.
It also boots from the RX02
