Keywords: Possible? How? Message-ID: <3911@cbnewsj.ATT.COM> Date: 15 Feb 90 22:17:15 GMT Organization: QRM Central Lines: 15 I have access to a 3B2 with a 60 Meg cartridge tape drive and also to a 6386 with a 125 Meg cartridge tape drive. There are a whole bunch of files that were CPIOed to the 60 Meg tape on the 3B2. Is it possible to read these files on the 6386 tape drive? If so, how is it done? A plain old cpio -itcv < whatever causes the tape drive light to come on, but it never reads anything. Thanks in advance for your help. -- ================================================================= Bob Schreibmaier K2PH | UUCP: att!lzss!k2ph or k2ph@lzss.att.com AT&T Bell Laboratories | ARPA: k2ph%lzss@att.arpa Lincroft, N.J. 07738 | ICBM: 40o21'N, 74o8'W
