I am trying to setup an Seagate IDE tape device. /dev/tape is not linked. I saw that the device created for this might be /dev/ht0?
This Tape device was on the machine when I installed Debian so I assume it was recognized and setup. I am not familiar with IDE tape devices so I am not sure about it's setup. It is listed as /dev/hdd at boot. I am assuming since it is not SCSI that I won't need the generic SCSI driver. I am also assuming that if I compile a kernel I won't need to mark any options specific to an IDE tape device? Are these correct assumptions? Are there any HOWTO's on the subject? All I saw on LDP were SCSI tape devices. Lance
