The man page for dump(8) does not give an example for the correct density and length for a TK50 cartridge. (It said the default is a 2400' tape at 1600 -- or does it figure out that this is not 1/2" tape and do the right thing?) Phil Budne Boston University budd@bu-it.bu.edu {mit-eddie,harvard}!bu-cs!budd
