[daip] Solaris 7 - problems with a Linux disk

[Andrzej Marecki]

Dear all,

I wonder if you have ever come across such a combination:

1. AIPS (ver.15OCT99) is run either under Solaris 2.6 or 7 with a command:

aips da=taurus

2. Disks are allocated according to the following DADEVS.LIST file:

-  /AIPSDA/GALILEO_1
-  /AIPSDA/GALILEO_2
-  /AIPSDA/HEVELIUS_1
-  /AIPSDA/HEVELIUS_2
-  /AIPSDA/TAURUS_1

Galileo is Sun Ultra running under Sol. 2.6, Hevelius is Sun Ultra 
running under Sol.7, Taurus is Linux with kernel 2.2.16.

3. With Solaris 2.6 all works fine - e.g. AIPS "free" command gives:

AIPS 1: Disk Volume name               Total Full     Free  Timd Access
AIPS 1:   #                           blocks    %   blocks  days
AIPS 1:   1  /AIPSDA/GALILEO_1       6381224   95   323276 999.0 Alluser
AIPS 1:   2  /AIPSDA/GALILEO_2       4464358   85   655423 999.0 Alluser
AIPS 1:   3  /AIPSDA/TAURUS_1       14845728    2 13762824 999.0 Alluser

Under Solaris 7 - AIPS hangs after having prompted:

AIPS 1: Enter user ID number
?

What's wrong?

Andrzej
