I have Caldera OpenLinux 2.2 which came with ftape 3.04.  This is my first
experience with Linux.

I downloaded 4.02, untarred it; everything seemed to be going well.  I spent
about 2 weeks in the evenings reading FAQ's and HOW-TO's.  I thought I was
ready to go, so I ran make config on the kernel (disabling ftape, zftape and
compressor), used it for several days to make sure nothing was broken--worked
very well.

When I tried to make ftape, NO GO!  I get errors right at the end about
fdc-io.c  after the command 'gcc-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -02.....' which ends
with '-c fdc-io.c'.

ERRORS:
        fdc-io.c:   In function  'fdc_interrupt_wait' :
        fdc-io.c:433:  structure has no member named 'timeout'
        fdc-io.c:454:  structure has no member named 'timeout'
        make[2]: ***  [fdc-io.o] Error 1
        make[2]:  Leaving directory '/usr/src/ftape-4.02/ftape/lowlevel'
        make[1]: ***   [modules]  Error 2
        make[1]:   Leaving directory '/usr/src/ftape-4.02/ftape
        make:  ***  [all]  Error 2

I have no idea what is happening.  Could someone lend a hand?
