Hi!
I'm at work so I don't have the appropriate links. There's an updated
version of Ftape that came out in September 1999 that you need to use for
the 2.2.x kernel series. You can get it from the same site as the other
versions; I think it might be in an unstable directory. There's another
website that popped up in the last few days of email that has some
extremely useful information on installing Ftape into the 2.2.x kernel. I
was finally able to get my Trakker parallel-port drive to work.
(Unfortunately, I have to reload the driver after each command...
something else I'm trying to figure out. ;)
BTW, I found it helpful to nuke the linux, ftape and ftape-tools source
trees and re-install the source trees to make sure I have a clean
installation. Compile the kernel without the default ftape enabled and
reboot. Compiling ftape and ftape-tools should be relatively easy after
that.
