Hi,
Thanks for the info.
I have gotten the tape to respond to the retention command.
But it is set readonly, so I can't do anything else.
The ftape Release notes said that that prob had been corrected, but
evidently not on mine.
Any advice?
Additionally, what accelerator card?
That isn't mentioned in the ftape docs (or at least I missed it) or in my
Pertec docs.
TIA
