Dear FreeBSD Team!

I have Troubles accessing my Iomega 250 QIC Streamer. I have modified and
compiled the Kernel to support the Streamer as described in the FAQ. The
Streamer was detected successfully at System-Startup. My problem is, that if=
 i
want to access the Streamer througt "mt" i always get back the message:=
 Device
not configured.

Other Programs like tar or cpio are accessing the streamer for a short while
and then they are stopping work. The only Program i can use without any
Problems are "ft".

I know, that the Streamer isn=B4t damaged because i can use it under DOS=
 with the
Central Point Backup Tool.

My System Configuration:

FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE
Asus 486SV1 EISA Mainboard
Adaptec AHA-2740T Controller (Tape-Drive is connect to the Floppy controller=
 on
this card)
IoMega QIC Streamer 250

With hope of response...
