This group is for neophytes, right?  Well, here goes...

I am trying to get 2.9 installed on my 11/70, and have progressed to
the point of worrying about dumps and restors.  I see a dump,restor
pair in /usr/src/cmd, and dump source (but no restor) in /usr/src/ucb/dump.
I see a dumprestor.h in /usr/include and in the ucb/dump area as well.
1. Will the non-ucb restor work with the ucb dump?
2. Does the ucb dumprestor.h completely supersede the one in /usr/include?
3. What about the standalone restor?  Is that the same as the regular restor?
   I remember in my 2.8 system having to massage some constants
   until the standalone restor was < 48k...  is that required in 2.9?

To summarize: how do I get a unified dump/restor (including standalone)?
I'd appreciate some mail on this.  Thanks.
