: Hi!
:
: I get an old QIC-40 Floppystreamer. It works under DOS and worked with
: Linux SuSE 5.3.
:
: Since i made my system new with SuSE 6.2 i get no access.
: A "mt retension" brings an error message like "can't find a suitable
: device" (in german).
: With lsmod i can see that the ftape-module is loaded.
There is no zftape module loaded? If this is the case you should add
to your /etc/conf.modules (or /etc/modules.conf):
alias char-major-27 zftape
and remove the ftape entry if it exists:
alias char-major-27 ftape
The reason is, that the new ftape has the module "zftape" as the main
module, ftape is only a helper module for zftape.
