On real hardware yes. You can use the CD-ROM of a Multiprice 3000
as emulated tape. But it might also be useful for Hercules although you
could also specifiy the indivial files that should be on the emulated
tape in hercules.cnf. A TDF file might have the problem that you need
a tapes directory in / when used with Hercules.
We can add the TDF file to the tape directory but I don't want to
make changes to the CD build scripts to use the copy from boot-floppies
at this time.
