Strange thing when upgrading an XP1000

Hello Managers,

One of my systems is an XP1000 running Tru64 5.0. This morning I have
planned to upgrade it to 5.1a going through 5.0a.

Some strange things happened during the first attempt of the upgrade as
removal of /sbin/sh and /shlib/libc.so, but I've restored them and
started the upgrade again.

The upgrade seemed to be OK till the reboot.

Then I have some 55 messages as

ERROR wrong cdev /dev/disk/xxx is 1300016 sb 1300008
bcheckrc Device Naming failed boot configure or verify.

I've removed the files and issued a dsfmgr -K command but the result is
the same.

In single user the bcheckrc command gives :

# bcheckrc
Checking device naming:
    Duplicate Local entry: A: 4efffff 4efffff 50 11
0 c
/dev/_scsi_scsi
WARNING: Device Status File Local: 1 duplicate or missorted entries

Warnings: Cluster 0 Local 1 Cluster/Local 0 Total: 1
WARNING: Ignoring error(s) - continue boot process.
Checking local filesystems
Mounting local filesystems
....and the file systems are OK.

I run currenlty 5.0a on this system with genvmunix but before upgrading
to 5.1a , it could be a good idea to resolve this problem...

Some idea ?

Thank you in advance
