Hello!
Dave, regarding that starter tape, (Yes I have the BobA system here,
and at home.), I understand how to create a disk, did that for the
original example of the system. But what about applying the tape
itself? Once I've created the disk, lets call it "starter.3330" and
added it to the configuration file, then what?

Yes, we've gone over it before, but I want to make sure I properly
understand it. (Lack of time and real life work got into the way
before.)
