Operation not supported by device

[George N. Conover]

I installed ftape-4.02.1 under RedHat 5.2 with kernel 2.0.36.1 and when I
issued "mt -f /dev/nqft0 status" the response was "/dev/nqft0: Operation not
supported by device".

mt -f /dev/nqft0 status
/dev/nqft0: Operation not supported by device

 hardware configuration:
CMS FC-20 floppy tape controller
HP Colorado T3000 floppy tape drive

cat /etc/conf.modules:
