Hi folks,
I can't get the kernel to see my Colorado tape drive. In the
FreeBSD FAQ there is an entry (6.2) about how to configure the kernel
to support a QIC-80 tape drive, with an example of the line to add to
the configuration file. I did exactly what's in there but the kernel
doesn't see the drive. I've rebuilded the kernel several times, using
different numbers for the fdc0 drives (0, 1, 2) but nothing
worked. Here's the piece of my configuration file for the kernel:
controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 vector fdintr
disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0
#disk fd1 at fdc0 drive 1
tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 2
When I used the following configuration:
controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 vector fdintr
disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0
#disk fd1 at fdc0 drive 1
tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 1
the system saw another floppy drive: [1: fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in] but didn't
see the tape drive.
Can anybody help me with that? I'm using FreeBSD 2.0
Thanks a lot!
