RE: [cobalt-developers] Qube 3 Not responding

["Toni Charlot" <developer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for the help guys.  I finally got the null modem working with
the good drives.  I swap in the bad drives, reboot and before I even set
CONSOLE ON, the drive was working.

I guess as seen before it took the thing quite a while to fix itself but
eventually did.

Is there a log file I can read to see what happened?

I have a feeling it's gonna be a good year.

It should.  However, just the other day I had a power outage on my 
single drive Qube (nearly full 30GB drive).  It took almost 2.5 hours 
for the thing to fix itself... I thought at first that it had been 
"fried" as I got no reponse, etc.  So I connected the null modem 
cable and watched while it ran fsck a couple of times (there's some 
sort of internal IDE timeout that reset the process after a while; 
guess nobody ever figured it could take a LONG time for fsck to run!)

Thus my suggestion to connect the null modem cable and see what's 
really going on...
