I installed 4.1.1 on a 3/60 several days ago and all worked fine...however
today (while reading this newsgroup) I was also attempting to install
SunOS 4.1.1 on a Sparc 1+ and I encounted precisely these same problems!!!
I am installing it on a Maxtor XT-8760S drive which is different than Mike
Anderson was using - so I presume (guess) that is not specific to this
make of hard disk. Any answers or suggestions would be very appreciated.
