ftape
driver under Linux. The ftape
driver interfaces to
QIC-40, QIC-80, QIC-3010 and QIC-3020 compatible drives only. The QIC-3010 and
QIC-3020 standards are also known as `QIC-WIDE'. These drives connects via
the floppy disk controller (FDC). It does not cover SCSI or QIC-02
tape drives. DAT tape drives usually (always?) connect to a SCSI controller.
This is but one of the Linux HOWTO documents. You can get an index of the
HOWTOs from
the Linux HOWTO index
, while the real HOWTO's can be fetched (using ftp
) from
sunsite.unc.edu:pub/Linux/doc/HOWTO
(this is the ``official'' place)
or via the World Wide Web from
