When I'm trying to refer to this device the system : answers /dev/rtf0: Device not configured : The name of the tape drive is Ditto Travan 3200 (QIC 80 standard) : what's the problem ? As far as I know, the driver is no longer maintained by its original author. I had the same problems with a ditto easy 800 and tried to find out what was wrong with the driver, but without any luck. It seems to be a problem to identify the drives. I wasn't able to find some docs about the qic80 standard, so I decided to go with a more modern dat streamer. -- Christoph Haas chris@acme1.ruhr.de "You can tune a filesystem, but you can't tune a fish." - man tunefs(8)
