Weird question, VAX VS4000/VLC - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

...
 Now for my wierd VLC question.  DKA700 ?!?!? 
Shouldn't a disk set to SCSI
ID #7 cause problems? 

VAXen with SCSI seem for reasons I've forgotten to be always set as host at
6
so a device at 0-5 and 7 are ok.  It wasn't until I'd seen PC SCSI that i'd
ever seen
a host at 7!

...
 step will be adding a 2GB HD (what the hey, it's
the only thing bigger than
the RZ23L in it that will fit that I don't currently have in use), and
loading out VMS.  I'm dying to see how DECwindows performs on this sucker! 

It hauls!  Check on this, I think that machime may not have the problem but
older SCSI vaxen have a limit of 1.07gb for the boot disk.  Has to do with
how VMS uses the boot rom driver if it has to do a core dump on crash.

I run a VS3100M76 (7.8vup) and DW runs really well on it.
