Hi Peter,

You're most likely right about the disk label being specific to
Solaris 2.  So I am thinking I should label it from my 3/80 running
4.1.1.  Another option worth exploring is setting up a network boot
for the Sparc LX.  Come to think of it, I should probably look into
that a bit more as it may turn out to be easier than moving the
SCSI2SD back and forth between the 3/80 and the LX.
