I've never set it up on FreeBSD before (or any other tape drive). I using 3.4 STABLE as of a week or so ago. I added the following to my config file and recompiled controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0 tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 1 I don't have a floppy drive in this computer... but if I don't have fd0 in the file I get error when compiling the kernel. dmesg | grep "relevent info" show this: fdc0 at 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in (the two fd0 lines are not a typo) When I try and run ft I get the following error: ft: /dev/rft0: Device not configured Although in /dev I have: brw-rw---- 2 root operator 2, 32 Mar 4 20:41 ft0 brw-rw---- 2 root operator 2, 32 Mar 4 20:41 ft0a crw-rw---- 2 root operator 9, 32 Mar 4 20:41 rft0 crw-rw---- 2 root operator 9, 32 Mar 4 20:41 rft0a Anyone have this type of drive working? or know if it's possible?
