226	reload_system_release of 12.7LDD_STANDARD produces an error file	Gary Dixon	Eric Swenson	"When reloading from 12.7LDD_STANDARD tape, a reload error file was created.  The console shows:


{{{

The actual .ef file cannot be displayed until system is fully up in ring 4.  I had to force SysAdmin.* access, adjust bit count on the .ef file, to display its contents.

A quick comparison between GHM >ldd>include and the same directory on the reloaded system shows
segment count and total records used in >ldd>incl on GHM versus my just-upgraded system are identical.

I have no idea what might be causing the Allocation failure.  What is hcs_$list_dir_fast?  

This problem deserves more investigation.
