There are dozens of ways to do that.  I prefer to use tar files, since
they are more efficient from the Unix side.  I think you can use pdtar
on multi-volume tar diskettes.  There is also a pd cpio program out there
somewhere.  Sorry I don't have the locations of pdtar, etc., but
it should be easy to find.  Anyone else know where to get pdtar?
