Hi there!
Anyone remember much about Tru64 + LSM? It's been a while since I've done
much with Tru64, and I never used LSM before.
I got some new 36GB disks and am doing a fresh install, and wanted to mirror
them with LSM, as the SCSI controller is not a RAID card.
Initially, the installe

That's a good suggestion. On the R2 group, the Builders Log section was
actually added after I su

Thanks a lot for the detailed answer Glen. I have looked in more detail into
my machine and its rear connectors. It's a 21MX (2112A), and it has two
battery holders at the back. The old batteries even came with it (!). On
this machine the battery connectors are just two pronged, + and -, so no

There is a good grain of truth to that. In complex Minecraft command

I burned it and popped it in but my Altos still doesn’t come up. Nothing is
output on console 1. I’ll have to start walking t
