Subject: Is 1.0 stable on an SE/30?

I installed the complete 1.0 binary distribution (from cray-ymp) on my
SE/30. It runs fine _unless_ I try to set the date. Shortly after (maybe
at the next disk I/O, but I'm not sure) I get a kernel panic. From this
point until I reinstall the kernel, the system panics at the drop of a hat.
If I reinstall the kernel and _don't_ try to set the date, I can run for a
long, long time without any problems at all (except that the timestamps on
all my files predate the invention of the electronic digital computer by
about a half century ;)
Advice? Suggestions? Will I be better off with one of the recent
distributions? Which one?
Dave
