> I can't figure out how to tar onto a roadrunner floppy -- all my > attempts result in an "unexpected EOF" error. There is a new archiving utility, available on 386i's only, called 'bar'. It is like 'tar' but supports floppy disks and writing multiple volumes. Unfortunately it uses a different format than 'tar'. The 'cluster' software is shipped by Sun in 'bar' format. See the man pages under bar(1). - Glenn Roberts, The MITRE Corp., McLean VA (703)-883-6820 gfr%wolfgang@gateway.mitre.org
