Re: [foxboro] Failed hard drive?


Rob,

I have seen this situation before at a customer site. After a power on
cycle the system must be trying to access the hard drive before it has
initialised / 'spun up'. If you then type 'boot' at the 'ok' prompt the WP
will boot normally.
The problem went away when the customer upgraded to 6.2.1.

After a hard boot due to cursor lock up on WP51D,
I get:

Bad magic number
Can't open disk label
Evaluating: Boot
Can;t open boot device

Is this a good sign for a bad hard drive?
