Hi All

I inherited an Olivetti LXX5010 that had a QIC tape built in which I (naturally) loaded FreeBSD
on. I Understand that the workstations
shipped with them.

Upon boot it seems that tape drive is seen:
   wt0 at 0x300-0x301 irq8 drq1 on isa
   wt0 : type <Wangtek>

However, I can't use the device without getting
   xx : /dev/wt0: No such file or  directory
even after doing MAKEDEV wt0 in /dev.

Any ideas what I'm missing and how I can get the drive to work.

I am running 2.2.8-RELEASE.

Regards
Pradesh Chanderpaul
