bintfake -b 80 bin.file.with.ptfs faketape.with.ptfs Reference at: http://support.funsoft.com/flexman/fsims100-faketape6-fsi-007-000-004-00 2.html You can them issue the flexescli command to get a flexes> command prompt. Then use the "mount" command to mount this tape. I am 99% sure that it is a non-labelled tape with BLKSIZE=80. Note that I do not have a FlexES system, I've just read about them.
