[TUHS] Uploaded 44bsd rootdump

Hello, On my FreeBSD/i386 host, I was unable to extract the "rootdump" file of the 4.4BSD-Alpha distribution available on Minnie. Fortunately, I succeeded on my NetBSD/vax machine, even though its version of NetBSD is far older than FreeBSD 5.3 which is what I have on the i386. The VAX "restore" program mentioned something about quad- swapping, so perhaps FreeBSD's "restore" does not translate the byte order. I think the 4.4BSD distribution is from a big-endian machine ("hp300"). It's funny, then, that I was sure that *at least* byte-order could *not* be the problem since both the i386 and VAX are little-endian and I was sure the 4.4BSD distribution was a VAX one! After extracting the rootdump, I created a .tar file instead and uploaded it to minnie.tuhs.org:/incoming, file name bsd44a-shoppa-rootdump.tar. You may wish to compress it and move it to the same directory as the other 4.4BSD-Alpha files so others won't have to go through the trouble I experienced. Regards, A. Wik
