It is the one that is attached to the floppy controller. when I try : tar cvzf - /usr |ft "/usr save" I get the following message: /dev/rft0: Operation not supported by device I cant seem to figure out how to get this to work. (yes, I did place "tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 2" in the kernl config file, and recompiled etc ) Thanks in advance for any help. Mike Hill
