Thanks for the above info.  What media does(do) Suns accept?

And, yes, the 3B1 accepts tar, cpio, afio, whatever, and the tar on the Amiga
works reasonably well (NO problems reading tar files created elsewhere, it's
just a pain creating them on the Amiga).

I've been "playing" with the GNU tar-1.09, but still have some more BSD-isms
to "correct."
