Tru64 5.1B Installation filesystem setup problems

[miketockhp]

VM configured with SCSI CD-Rom + 1 SCSI disk. AXP 1.1.0

Installation options Mandatory SW default OS layout NO lsm Advfs

Applying the selected disk label on device dsk0

Creating the root file system on device dsk0a bs_bfdmn_activate: can't open log for domain 'root_domain', tag = 0xfffffff7.0x0: E_CANT_FIND_LOG_END (-1077) advfs_logger: invalid rec offset: 0x00000000 in domain root_domain

The mkfset command failed to create an advfs fileset for the root file domain.

Please inspect the file /var/tmp/install.FS.log to identify the source of the failure.

This error is fatal and causes the installation procedure to stop. One possible cause for the error is a corrupt system disk. You may want to replace the current disk or use another system disk, and begin the installation again. If this error message appears a second time, contact a service representative.

UPDATE: Following configuration seems to work so far. CDROM IDE 0.0 DISK IDE 1.0

Time outs are still occurring, but filesystem issue does not occur. Tru64 Installation still running almost 24 hours after. with CDROM + Disk at IDE 0.0 + 0.1 system would have crashed 23 hours ago. Hosting VM hung so install did not complete.
