I'm not clear on what you mean by this. Here is how I was planning to do the install: 1) Boot from tape 2) Install miniroot on disk 3) Boot from disk 4) Untar rest of installation onto disk from tar tape file The instructions in usr/src/man/docs/setup (in the tar file) talk about using cpio and cpio format tape files instead of tar, but all I have is a tar file. I have not managed to finish step 3.
