Booting a 3/80 from 60 MB streamer (shoeb

Currently we are running SunOS 4.0 on a couple of 3/60 and 3/160. Now we
have got a diskless 3/80 and SunOS 4.0.3 on a 1/4" cartridge. Trying to
boot the 3/80 from our old shoebox with "b st()" resulted in a "device not
found" error. Sun's comment on the problem : Sorry, 3/80 with a shoebox is
not supported...

So the situation is: we can't install the new OS with one of our 3/60
(it's the 68030-version) nor can we boot with the 3/80 from tape. Any help
for that?? Thank you.
