I grabbed a copy of the diskimage to install on an "empty" pmax. After
hanging the disk off an old 1.2G installation, I do the following:
disklabel -W /dev/rrz1c
Which seems to work. When I try to dd the diskimage by
gunzip -c diskimage.gz | dd of=/dev/rrz1c bs=10240
dd fails with something like
/dev/rrz1c: read-only file system
or something along those lines.
Disk in question is a previously labeled rz58. Am I missing something
brutally obvious?
