with  zftape for ftape v4.03-pre-3 03/28/99 on 2.2.6-ac1 ?

This is a HP T1000 and works fine on previous ftape releases and 2.0.36.

With full tracing on, here are a few highlights:-

======================================================================
However, the CMOS backup battery on the target machine failed recently, and I
did have to set up all the BIOS parameters again. It is possible, but unlikely,
that I have changed an io timing value. I mention that just in case.
=======================================================================

Of course I will report in much more detail, probably directly to Claus
if need be.

Anyone else had trouble with 2.2.6 on a standard internal drive?

TIA
