Where can I find documentation on how such a tape should be organized? I'd like the tape I make to be compatible with the "install from scsi tape" installation option from the freebsd installation floppy. I might also be interested in burning my own CDROMs so the same info as it applies to CDROMs would also be helpful. Thanks much for your help, Tom
