Re: AlphaServer3300 stability?

["Aaron" <afb uswest net>]

I am having similar reliability problems with my DEC AS3300.  I am
experiencing random lockups.  Doesn't matter if I'm in X or not.  My
configuration is:

128M, IBM 18G DGHS HD, Matrox Millenium,
DEC PCI NIC, 3com 3C595 NIC, & SB16 ISA

I am running RH 6.1 with updates.  I tri-boot NETBSD
and NT4 on this  machine as well and they both run stable.  I'm glad I'm not
the only one having problems.  I guess this is why redhat lists this machine
as "compatible but not supported"
