Hi, I am using the updated installation floppy from release 2.05. My computer is a Compaq Deskpro/i 486DX2-66 with 4 Megas, and a Compaq tape drive. I had already installed SCO, and it had to be defined as a Wangtek type to work correctly. When installing freeBSD I read perfectly the instructions: I loaded a tape on the drive, I disabled all the hardware I didn't have, and I verified there were no conflicts with other hardware, I even defined the drq correctly to the one used by the tape (3). As a result the tape drive was recognized at boot time, it even moved, but when I wanted to define the Media a message said the program didn't detect any tape drive. It has to be a bug, I mean, I tried all the posibilities to ensure everything was configured right! thanks, Pedro. pgiffuni@bacata.usc.unal.edu.co By the way, very pretty installation!
