I think this is just a typo in the installation script. It still says
/dev/cua0 and /dev/cua1 so I think it's ok. (but I haven't tried it
out yet).

There is a problem with the tape drive definition in /dev. It's
defined as a block device instead of a character device. A quick mknod:

mknod /dev/rmt0 c 9 0

will fix the problem. I still haven't been able to install directly
from tape (don't know what format to put things on the tape), but I was
able to dump the installation to a hard disk and install that way.

Also the install.end file is missing from the t3 disk. So touch that
if you are installing TeX.
