- Sorry if this is a common knowledge, but mksysb is a simple
- shell script that uses find to create the archive list, so it
- is not too hard to modify in to your liking. While I am at it
- may I ask you aixperts how to untar a single file from bootable
- tape made with standard mksysb ? I tried tctl -f /dev/rmt0.1 fsf n
- with n=1,2,3,4 and all combinations of dd I can think of, but it
- never lets me stop after this dummy TOC and use tar -xf ... :-(
-
- Thanx for all helpful hints.
