Something like a system crash or bugcheck, which causes a ROM routine to be called which will dump RAM to disk for later analysis. The problem is that the ROM routine has a maximum size issue, and it may wrap around and overwrite a lower section of the hard drive. I really wish I could find the reference, though...

Unless I did my maths wrong, it's showing up as 136G as a FILES-11 volume(~700M in SHOW DEVICES at the tripel chevron prompt) There also seems to be no 1G boot drive limit on this as my boot drive is about 4G. Was this a limit that existed in earlier VAXstations? -- Cory Smelosky http://gewt.net Personal stuff http://gimme-sympathy.org Projects --- Filter service subscribers can train this email as spam or not-spam here: http://my.email-as.net/spamham/cgi-bin/learn.pl?messageid=558FD5B43E6811E3B… --- Filter service subscribers can train this email as spam or not-spam here: http://my.email-as.net/spamham/cgi-bin/learn.pl?messageid=4FF6ADD43E6911E3B…
