For one thing, the file structures are obviously different, and any attempt to restore onto a 4BSD filesystem is sheer suicide. It would be nice if there were such a program in the world as I converted from a v6 11/70 to a Vax myself. We managed with tar, but being able to restore old full dumps would be useful. Anyone out there already done it?? -Mike ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
