this is from memory - so may be wrong (!).
the rs/6000 can read/write qic150, and can read qic24.  the rt will
(almost certainly) not read qic150.  i talked to someone at ibm about
this quite a while ago and the answer was `they are expected to be on
a network'.  if this is the case, then you can move stuff from rt to
rs/6000, but not the other way.
	anyone from ibm (or elsewhere) care to correct me here ?
