Some time back when I still had a SCO ODT system running I wrote
a file to a floppy under SCO which I now wanted to read back under
FreeBSD to no avail.
I wrote (as a reminder how to extract it back) dd if=/dev/rfd048ds9
upon the label of the floppy.
Now I wanted to read it back under FreeBSD using dd if=/dev/rfd0.360 .
I also got a file of length 368640 but I cannot read anything
useful from it. (It had bin a dump of a .Z file).
Any ideas? Are there differences in the formats between the two systems?
