I'm using Redhat 6.0 and cannot for the life of me figure out why I can't get Ftape 4.02 to compile. I have modified MCONFIG (which from what I saw, didn't need any modification with the exception of telling it that I am using a 586 processor). When I look in the /lib/modules/2.2.5-15/misc directory, I see an old ftape.o (Apr 99) loaded there. When I issued the command mt -f /dev/ftape erase I get the response: Device not configured. When I issue "make" from the top level source directory, there are a number of messages that come back to me. I can really understand what they are saying. Does anyone have any suggestions? Note: I ran make config for the kernel, it looks like ftape support for the standard floppy controller is already installed. Yes I am using a floppy based tape drive. I believe it is the irwin 120 mb model. Thanks. PS.. I have been reading the how-to's etc. -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
