problems
Well,

I got a lot of problems last weekend, which resulted in working on saturday and sunday.
I previewed the installation before doing the real install.
No problems seem to occur, when doing the real install nothing failed, the installation completed, then we decided to reboot.

While starting up, # 554 was displayed in the led.
After doing some research on this error code, we decided first to restore the system from an mksysb (had 2 of them).
When we restored a mksysb from tape, we still had error 554.
So we searched on Internet about this one.

After doing all steps mentioned in the document above the result was the same.

We decided to do a complete reinstall of the OS.
Since this morning is everything running again, not smoothly, but it works.

Did any of you have same problems, or any suggestions, for the future?

Erik
