First, the tape drive must be connected via the floppy disk controller. Connections via parallel port or Colorado's cards are not supported. Next, make sure the device is configured into your kernel. By default it is disabled because it apparently causes problems with some peoples' systems. You will need to build a new kernel. Your config should have: disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 disk fd1 at fdc0 drive 1 tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 2 make sure this last line isn't commented out. - Steve steve2@genesis.nred.ma.us
