Greetings. I'm trying to use a Colorado Jumbo 350 tape drive with
FreeBSD 2.1.7 and getting nowhere. It's a QIC-80/117 compatible floppy
controller drive and runs fine nuder SCO and Linux. On rebuilding the
kernel and making the documented changes to the conf file, on rebooting
the tape drive is not detected. Does anyone have any suggestions?

John
