In-Reply-To: <199606271346.JAA04521@rk.ios.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-current@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have two systems with DEC DE500-XA boards connected with a cat-5 crossover cable. Machine A is a P90 running 2.1R, machine B is an SP3G w/AMD 5x86. Running at 100mb, I can perform a successful NFS installation of 2.1R on machine B from A every time. When I try to NFS install a 2.2-SNAP (tried the last 2) onto machine B, things fail with "de0: FIFO overflow" on the client machine (machine B). This happens not far into the extraction process - maybe in the bin distribution. I am about to try this with 2.1.5-BETA, next... -Chris On Thu, 27 Jun 1996, Rashid Karimov wrote to freebsd-stable: > Hi there folx, > > > I've upgraded to latest 2.2-0612 SnAP on one of my machines > here and it looks like its now mouch more stable SCSI- wise - > I don't see them resets and SCSI aborts anymore, but this > message pops-up every once in a while: > > de0: receiver: FIFO overflow > > > What does it mean in sense of stability ?
