Subject:   Installing 2.0.5 from tape using wt0 failed

I tried to install FreeBSD 2.0.5 from my QIC150 tape-streamer
thru the wt-driver. The installprogram didn't find any tapedevice.
(The updated and the original version)

(This is only to inform anyone who is working on the installation
routines. I managed to install FreeBSD thru diskettes... :-)
The streamer also works fine after I managed to install the minimal
configuration.)

Debug info:
Tape was loaded before boot, base address 0x240. I changed
it with '-c'. Tried to remove all drivers except wt0 and aha0.

The kernel found wt0 after I changed the address with -c, the
tape rewinded at boot, but installation still didn't find it.


More debuginfo would be nice, and/or a shell available at all time.
