Morning folks,
I have a large number of disks to install on a 4100 with HSZ80 storage works
and was looking for a time saver.
Assuming I have a similar disk already fitted, which I do, and that the new
disks all need to be configured in the same way, which they do, I believe I
ought to be able to speed the labeling process by saving the original fitted
disk label to a file ( disklabel -r > image.file ) and then using the
command
Disklabel -w -t advfs -f image.file <new_disk>
I would be grateful if anyone could provide confirmation that this method is
valid, "gotchas" etc, or if not, how I might manage this.
TIA
Kind regards
Lawrie Smith
