	The v3.2 version I have from bitsavers has the baseline disk a few bytes larger than
	an RL01 so simH autosized it (incorrectly) to an RL02. Hopefully Mark’s new sizing
	code should avoid this in the future. To copy an RL01 RSX disk to an RL02 you can use
	BRU (Backup and Restore Utility). Get the magtape image
	BB-L974F-BC_RSX11M_4.5_BRU64K.tap from bitsavers. Attach your RL01 image to
	rl0 and create a new RL02 image attached to rl1. Boot the magtape:

	first device is dl0:
	second device is dl1:

	At the “>” prompt type “run bru”
	At the “BRU>” prompt type “/init dl0: dl1:” and it will perform the copy. If you copied the
	baseline system, you should be able to boot the newly created RL02.
