| One of our servers failed when serving online and is now failing to load
Linux.
First signs is 'portmapper' fails, then "Starting NFS quotas" fails with the
message :-
"Cannot register service: RPC: Unable to recieve: errno= connection
refused rpc.rquotad: Unable to register (RQUOTAPROG, RQUOTAVERS, udp)"
Then it is hanging on "Starting NFS Demon".
On Ctrl-Alt-Del the system shutsdown under control from runlevel 6.
When trying the rescue or Linux install disk it fails on "Loading SCSI
driver"
Loading aic7xxxx driver...
There it hangs.
I thus suspected the DAC960PG SCSI controller but that seems OK in the boot
sequence and when checked by the Configuration Disk I downloaded from LSI.
Looks like some port mapping problem ???
Any help welcome,
Aaron
