All, I wrote: Hmm. Well, the V7 tape is saved... took a bunch of retries, but I managed to grab all of it. The V6 (Mini-UNIX) tape was OK, but some !$%(!@#$%@# must have run out of blank tapes, and decided to use this one.. it contains binary data. Major bummer, sorry :( Still working on the 2.8BSD tape, which needs more work. I also have to work on Christian Corti's tapes.. now that I have a working 800bpi SCSI drive, I actually *can* :) [thanks Walter!] Images will be sent off to the PUPS archive. Cheers, Fred
