FW: ftape
Sorry not quite that simple. Debian has no ftape device in /dev. You need
to create the ftape device in /dev using a command like that below.
mknod -m 660 /dev/rft0 c 27 0
mknod -m 660 /dev/nrft0 c 27 4
I used this ages ago - as far as i am aware ftape and zftape are the some
thing now.

Hi All,
HAs anyone succesfully managed to install ftape? I've downloaded the
source and build the kernel modules but when I got to insmod I'm getting

Hint: You are trying to load a module without a GPL compatible license
and it has unresolved symbols. Contact the module supplier for
assistance, only they can help you.
I've tried recomiling but I guess I'm missing something. I'm using
2.4.19-xfs. Any ideas?
