Unfortunately, neither rootdisk that I've found, 0.98.pl5-31 nor 
0.99.pl14, will access any of the basedisks that I've found.

They will mount, df shows that there is data on them.  But ls says that 
there's no "." file or I get an "XIA-FS: bad directory entry (dir.c 91)" 
error message.

I get the same type of errors from this disk too.

I downloaded all the LDR that I could find on I.A. and looked through 
them.  Only '94-06 has basedisk images on them.

I have yet to be able to access any data on any basedisk sets.  :-/
