- HELP!
- I need to migrate an entire xenix filesystem to a clean unix box.
- After doing several cpio and tar cmd's, the entire xenix box locks
- up..and locks hard!
- I must migrate all data to a unix box with a working tape unit.
- my question:
- can i cpio thru cu or must i uucp all files with appropriate cmd's.
- i know lan - lan tape 'ware is out there but i'd rather see if i
- can hack it with some local cmd's.
- has anyone done this before?
- please e-mail me.
