Floppy tape support was dropped somewhere back around 3.1, IIRC...
My recommendation would be: If you can't afford to replace the Jumbo-250
with an expensive ATAPI or SCSI tape drive, I'd go with a CD-RW drive. The
drives are under $200 now, and a $0.50 CD-R will hold about 2-3 Jumbo-250
tapes' worth of data...
