I got a 4gig Seagate Travan IDE ATAPI tape drive recently I am running FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE it detects it on boot as wdc1 the IDE channel its on so I compiled the kernel with this option: device wst0 #Tape Drive Like it said in the LINT file, so then on reboot I get: wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): <Seagate STT8000A/5.44>, removable, accel, dma, iordis wst0: Drive empty, readonly, reverse, qfa, ecc, 512b wst0: Max speed=600Kb/s, Transfer limit=52 blocks, Buffer size=728 blocks Then I goto /dev/ there is no entry for it ./MAKEDEV wont make the entry is this tape drive compatible with FreeBSD 3.3? or am i missing a step? Any suggestions i dont want to switch back to linux. Thanks Ryan Troy To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
