But if RT-11 uses this device driver even when reading the disk without
trying to handle it as an RT-11 file system, then the RT-11 device
driver can't be used at all if you want to read foreign packs.
There's a .SPFUN to bypass RT's private bad-block replacement (yes the list
is in block 1), so you can easily write a small program to do the copy, but
I'm 99% sure COPY/DEVICE will just use .READ so, bad news.
Writing a stand-alone program to copy RLs would be straightforward, if you
wanted to be done once and for all.
