v6 restore
The problems are manyfold.  For one thing, the file structures are
obviously different, and any attempt to restore onto a 4BSD filesystem
is sheer suicide.  It would be nice if there were such a program
in the world as I converted from a v6 11/70 to a Vax myself.
We managed with tar, but being able to restore old full dumps
would be useful.  Anyone out there already done it??
