>From jeff Thu Apr 4 03:40:22 1996 To: terry@lambert.org Subject: Re: Tape storage media. Content-Length: 565 Status: R In reference to an earlier mail message, I decided that since I have IDE drives and no SCSI controller, I should get a Colorado T1000 QIC-80 tape drive. However, I am having problems using it. Right now I am running a generic kernel with ft0 at disk 2. I assume that I must reconfigure the kernel and put it at disk 1 since all I have is a 3.5in at fd0 and no 5.25. Is this correct? Also, the documentation for ft mentions that 'Formatting and verifying are unsupported at this time you must rely on your own backup program.' What exactly does this mean? Thank you, JM
