I'm trying to help someone set up backups on a VS-II/GPX with a TK50
running Ultrix 2.x.  The man page for dump(8) does not give an example
for the correct density and length for a TK50 cartridge. (It said the
default is a 2400' tape at 1600 -- or does it figure out that this is
not 1/2" tape and do the right thing?)
