Keywords: Software Message-ID: <1080@brazos.Rice.edu> Date: 23 Aug 89 15:12:17 GMT Sender: root@rice.edu Organization: Sun-Spots Lines: 16 Approved: Sun-Spots@rice.edu X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 8, Issue 106, message 2 of 15 You have an OS tape. You wish to copy it for safekeeping. You use "dd" but it doesn't seem to work. What is a good way to duplicate OS release tapes. Again, I reiterate, this copying is merely for safekeeping as tapes tend to get chewed up at our site .... thanks, fmb ps: If Sun considers this to be "illegal" please let me know as I tend to be woefully ignorant in these matters of legality..... -- NOTHING in the above article has the slightest relationship to reality.
