Whats next on the list, bootblocks? :)

sort of :-)  full install from tape.  seems very broken right now for 11/7xx.

Considering the fact that the 11/7xx machines never supported booting from tape in the first place, that's no surprise. :-)

That is, VMB can't even boot from tape. There is no way to get the machine to even try booting from a tape.

But I didn't know we had problems with the bootblocks. What kind of problems are we talking about here?
