When trying to restore the 00_install.tap (http://bitsavers.org/bits/LMI/lambda/00_install.tap) from Bitsavers in the current master of ld, it fails to to restore the LOD partition and LMC partition. It works if one tries using 0.98.1.

According to http://bitsavers.org/bits/LMI/lambda/0x_tap.txt:

It differs from a real tools tape in that there is a double EOF after the band images. The SDU expects some kind of indication of end-of-file that I don't know about yet, so this makes it proceed in the right order anyway (albeit with complaints)

Might have something to do with that?
