Hi,
I have two systems sunning Solaris 8.  One is INTEL and the other is =
SPARC Hardware.  I would like to add the drive from the INTEL machine to =
the SPARC system, it contains my /var/spool/news directory.  I attempted =
to add the drive to the SPARC system but I got an error message that =
said "wrong magic number".  Here is my question do I have to format the =
drive in order to get it working for SPARC or is there a work around so =
that I can save the data without gzip or somethin like that.  Thanks.
Shain=20
