Ok, I've managed to hook the hard drive  from the second VAX to the first
using the expansion bays. I've tried to dd the tk50 files to the drive to be
able to boot off of that. The tk50-file1-12? worked once, but it wasn't able
to find file2. I've heard that NetBSD and Ultrix use different partition
tables is this true? Or am I doing it wrong? this is what I do:

dd if=tk50-file1-12? of=/dev/rd1c bs=512
dd if=tk50-file2=12? of=/dev/rd1b bs=512

variations

used rd1a instead of rd1c

used rrd1* instead of rd1*

tried using rd1h it wasn't big enough so I used :
chpt -p 0 4096 /dev/rrd1c
when it didn't work went back into Ultrix and the h partition was back to 0.

I've tried the tk....13A files. No luck. (these aren't gziped are they?)

Any suggestions?



Thanks,
