Note that I (the howto-maintainer) no longer use ftape myself, so
I cannot give much up-to-date advice on e.g. compiling ftape. If
you have a problem, try posting on comp.os.linux.help, or to the
tape discussion list on vger.rutger.edu (see
Following the ftape development
below). You
should try to post a summary of your problems and its solution(s), after
you've got it working, even if you only got it partially working. Please
also send me (<khp@pip.dknet.dk>) a copy of your solution so
that I can add it to the HOWTO.
I read my mail daily, I try to respond to everyone, but I cannot guarantee
that I will respond immediately. Also, I seldomly read the newsgroups
(comp.os.linux.help et al), as my Internet access is through a
modem line and I have to read news On-line 8-(.
If you recieve this as part of a printed distribution or on a CD-ROM, please check out the Linux Documentation home page or ftp to ftp://sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/doc/HOWTO to see if there exists a more recent version. This could potentially save you a lot of troubles.
