Agreed, but my original statement was: It might help if HARDWARE.TXT (both -current and -stable) didn't list floppy tapes. It refers to the driver as "stale" rather than gone. The driver has been listed that way through all of the 3.x releases, which is the platform for users, and will probably still be listed the same way when 4.0 is released. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack O'Neill Systems Administrator / Systems Analyst jack@germanium.xtalwind.net Crystal Wind Communications, Inc.
