Well

I just got this machine that had two XT-4380E hard disks and one of them 
was dead, so I replaced it with another XT-4380E I had in another 
MicroVAX-II.

So far so good, I now have a system that has 2 XT-4380E on a RQDX 
controller.

My problem, I can't write a disk label.  I run "edlabel" and it runs just 
fine and I tell it to write the label, but when I go back to check the
label, it's not their.  When I load my handy-dandy diagnostics tape, it
tells me that the hard disks are "off-line".

If their anything special I have to do with these hard disks to get them to
work?  I know that the one that I replaced the bad one with works as it 
came from one of my old VAX/VMS systems and at one time I had NetBSD loaded
on it.

I would appreciate any help on this.
