Thanks for the command, and oh you're right! :-) For some reason, I
thought it was listing my hard drives and wasn't paying that close
attention I guess. I don't know if the tape drive supports DMA, so I think
I'd better play it safe on that one. :-) I depend on that tape drive to
back my system up.
Thanks for the info.
