I am using FreeBSD 1.1R with a 3COM 3c503 8 bit ether card.

I am trying to copy a partition of a remote 4.3 BSD machine and having
some problems (copying small numbers of files is OK).

I have tried two ways.

Firstly using cp

If I do cp -R /remotenfs/foo /local/bar 

Then I am getting a 100 or so errors of the form

vnode pageing error:5  reported.


Secondly using tar

cd /remotenfs/foo ; tar cf - . | (cd /local/bar; tar xf -)

I get tape read errors on a number of files.

Any ideas what is going on?
