We're getting ready to retire our VAX 4000/200 (with an odd "VaxStation 4"
nameplate) and I'd like to make disk images of the RA81s and RA82s in the
system and burn them to CD. Could I make a NetBSD boot tape, boot it,
configure the network, then ftp the disk images off (via something like
"get <whatever_device_file_name> dua0.img")?
Is this possible? There's not enough disk space to make an image directly
on the machine...
Thanks!
