Hi!
I tried to use teac ft-3020k with linux-2.1.131 and pretty old floppy
controller. Hardware seems to work, rewinds tape back and forth, but i
can not read/write anything. It _seems_ to me that floppy controller
can only support .5Mbps, but tape supports only 2Mbps. (Is that
possible?) Relevant part of log is: Is there way for me to make it
work?
