I am trying to install Ultrix on to this machine and it is failing very
early in the process. It is failing at the stage of detecting the disks with
an "invalid block size" error.
I am using a CR-506 CD-ROM drive and the disks I have are RZ56 and RZ57. The
disks already have NetBSD installed and I intend to replace NetBSD on one of
the disks.
I am not sure if the error is referring to the CD-ROM (despite the fact that
it has already booted off the CD-ROM) or if perhaps it does not like
something about the way the hard disks are formatted. Or is it some other
problem? The system runs NetBSD just fine, so I don't think the disks are
faulty.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Rob
