Tim,
just a quick note to say that I got my Iomega Ditto Max working with the
latest release and the example insert script for loading the modules. Both
of these from the linuxtapecert.org web site. I also had to change my
Parallel Port setting to EPP. I was basically getting the same kind of
messages as Greg so I think the solution to his problems is there
also.Thanks for the help
