I have the a 486DX and with Slackware 96 installed in it. It was running
well for the last two years. Suddenly from the day before yesterday when
I am running concurently "gs -sDEVICE=stcolor -dNOPAUSE -sPAPERSIZE=legal
-sOutputFile=m%d <a big .ps file consisting of 157 pages> -c quit"
concurrently with LaTeX compilation under "emacs" the machine is telling
after some time "hda time out", "hda busy" and the operation is stopping;
if in X, then the cursor gets still and I have to do a hrad boot.
Please tell me what is the problem and what is its remedy.
Thanks in advance.
