More HP1000's, and bootstrapping old systems in general. - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

30 Jan 2002

Did a little research and found the FST description at:

http://www.hp.com/products1/rte/tech_support/documentation/documentation1/9…

Not sure if I'll have time to tackle this or not. If anyone else decides to 
write an application to decode the data, I'd be interested in the results.

See ya,

The manuals are available from HP, and I believe that the format for these
files are in the back of the backup manual... I'm not sure if the manuals
are on the interex site, but if you go into the RTE section of hp support,
you can download them there...

  Hmmm, does anyone on interex understand this
format?
