1) 1/4" SCSI tape (st)
2) 1/2" magnetic tape (mt)

If your distribution is on two 1/4-inch tape cartridges, ,etup will prompt you to change to the
second cartridge about two minutes into its back-end routine. Insert the second tape and type
'RETURN' to continue the routine; it takes approximately
25
minutes to complete. When
,etup completes its back-end work, your shell prompt returns. You can then continue your
installation by booting the full
UNIX
system, as described below.
