The test/demo disks and similar material should be preserved in their
original format (raw sector dump of the disk), in case there is any hidden
information that might turn out to be interesting later.

a) On a second thought, maybe not. b) Yes, as a part of the cbmconvert

It seems that they have upgraded the ftp.funet.fi system during the
weekend.  The ssh host identification has changed, and my old password is
no longer valid.  Also, the file systems are (or have been) mounted
read-only.  I hope that this will be sorted out in a few days.
