- I don't know why, but I you do like this:
- cd /
- ln vmunix vmunix.foo
- tar cf /dev/rst0 vmunix vmunix.foo vmunix.foo vmunix.foo
-
- then you can extract the vmunix in amigados:
- gtar xf tape: vmunix
-
- Also, much better way to move vmunix to amigados is to mount the
- bsd partitions to ados :-) There is this nice BFFS (bsd ffs) for
- amiga, it's read-only, but works quite well for the purpose.
- You can't do 'loadbsd bsd-root:vmunix' but still have to copy the
- file to amiga partition (why??) and at mounting time the filesystem
- generates couple of enforcer hits..
