Does ftape 4.02 work with this drive? I'm using RH 5.2 (linux 2.0.36)
and get the following errors when loading the driver and trying
[root@www modules]# ftmt -f /dev/qft0 status
ftmt: /dev/qft0: Device or resource busy

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been through the FAQ,
How-To, manual, Install and ftape.txt several times each, but to no
avail.
