lp's on 4.1bsd
>From LISA@CIT-20 Tue Sep 22 15:09:53 1981
Has anybody out there had trouble getting line printers to work on 4.1bsd?
We have two, but I can't get even one to work.  I have the lp line in our
version of the GENERIC configuration file.  If I comment this line out, it
works fine.  If I leave it in, it hangs when I reboot.  It finds the memory
controller and the unibus, but that's as far as it ever gets.

I suspect some problem with the vector address.  Can anyone explain to me
how the vector addresses are discovered on a boot?

Thanks.
