- And on the up side, the CD is in ISO 9660 format, which makes it mountable
- and usable on any UNIX, on DOS, and even on proprietary operating systems
- like (dare I say it?) VMS. As Boyd points out, all the information is on
- the CD to recover and use the original BSD-style names of everything there.
