First up thanks for all the replies to my earlier questions, here are a  
couple more.

1) This Berkley Packet Filter, what is it and how do I know if I have it  
:-)
I have a Sun ELC running Solaris 2.5 with the latest verion of GCC  
installed. Can I compile the rbootd program provided on this  
machine?? I havent found anything about the BPF in either the SUN
or GCC manual pages. I've been waiting to download GMAKE before
trying to compile the program.

2) If I boot from a tape can I download the miniroot via NFS?? Can a  
tape writen on a QIC 1/4" drive (standard Sun Archive) be read by a
HPIB 9144 drive??
