Hi,

	Have a look at the hardware sections in the FreeBSD Handbook and FAQ on
http://www.freebsd.org/. For the screen card go to the Xfree86
http://www.xfree86.org
web site. Everything should be ok, except I didn't see this tape drive
anywhere. Not
that I was looking very hard.

	Taking an uneducated guess, I would say no. The two kernels are
quite different from each other.
