Take the case apart - there's an internal tape drive, power
supply, and floppy controller in the case. Remove the internal drive
and install it in your system ... viola! A usable tape drive.

Apparently, Linux doesn't have a driver for the Intel 82557-based PCI
twisted-pair ethernet card. It looks as thought this is not the same
as the EtherExpress Pro/10+ because it uses a different chip (the 82557).

success.

Tried adding floppy=thinkpad to the boot line, no joy. Something in
