Hmm, if you already have it on a DSDD disk, why not just transfer it on a
PC to a DSSD disk (by formatting using "format x: /t:40 /n:9"). If you
still want mtools, you should ftp it from 129.217.64.63. All I had to
do to compile it was to add a "#define sparc" somewhere, the docs tell it
all. Email if you have questions.
