- _m_k_b_o_o_t_t_a_p_e is used to build, list, or extract "boot tape filesystems".
- Booting from tape is no longer supported. However, the tape filesystem
- format is still used in the ssssaaaa file used in booting from CDROM.
-
- A tape filesystem consists of a special directory that contains the list
- of filenames, sizes, and offsets, and from one to 20 files. Filenames
- can be up to 16 characters in length.
-
- The following options are understood:
-
- ----llll List the contents of the boot tape. In this case the
- file arguments are ignored.
-
- ----ffff [_o_u_t_p_u_t__f_i_l_e] Specify an alternate output file or device. The
- default is /_d_e_v/_t_a_p_e.
-
- ----xxxx [_f_i_l_e ...] Extract files from the boot tape. If no filenames are
- given, all files are extracted. Extracted files have
- their original size (they are not null padded to a
- block multiple).
-
- The typical use for this program is to create an output file that is used
- in booting from CDROM, or to extract files from that "filesystem". The
- PROM monitor understands the boot tape format.
-
- NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEESSSS
- Unless you have means to create a standalone program, this utility is
- useful only listing or extracting the files, or creating new boot images
- from previously extracted files. In some cases it can be used to extract
- the standalone programs into a directory, because most standalone
- programs can be booted from the filesystem using _s_a_s_h or over a network.
