: I try to configure the autoload in /ect/conf.modules but when i do like
: SuSE-help says, the floppy in no more availiable.
:
: Autoload the zftape-module gives an "not a block device" error if i try
: to open the floppy.
:
: But a "modprobe zftape" in a session is ok!?
It's not possible to access a tape drive and a floppy connected to the
same floppy controller at the same time. So if you open the ftape
device, the floppy can't be accessed. As long as only the
ftape-module is loaded, but the ftape device isn't touched, using the
floppy is okay.
