If you're running -current, you should at least be able to apply kernel
patches...

I have both a an Eagle TR-3 and an old Mountain QIC80 drive which I could donate
to someone stupid^h^h^h^h^hbrave enough to revive the FT driver. I can even
send
along a few tapes for each.
I personally gave up and went Exabyte SCSI.

If you don't know about programming, then you just shouldn't be running
-current. Step back to 2.2.8R and enjoy the Floppy Tape support there.

Well, I need to learn a little about programming first, so where do you
reccomend I begin learning?

I have an Exabyte Eagle TR-3 drive, and I had a look at the floppy
tape situation a while back. The driver is.. well.. inadequate. It
makes a lot of assumptions that are quite a few years incorrect. But
they're probably still needed if someone has those old drives. New
drives come in all sorts

Not at all - get busy on maintaining this thing and ft is all yours
again. How do you think stuff like this happens around here?

I have a 2.2.x machine with a 120M device. I believe someone on this list
stated that they had it working with a 250M device as well.

Btw, if this is a new device, it is unlikely that the ft driver will support
it anyway, I don't think i

I just finished looking in LINT for "ft" the floppy tape device. Now I remember
some discussion of this being removed a while ago, but I do not remember the
outcome of this. I am running a -curent system and was wondering what I sue for
a floppy tape driver.
