IDE Tape setup
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.
