- I've installed a Python DAT tape drive in a 4D30 PI and haven't had much
- success using it. I seem to be able to tar to it, but can't get the data
- back off of it. Sara Kunz has been quite helpful with other aspects of
- tape usage and automatic backup, but she wasn't sure if Pre-4.0 Irix releases
- supported the DAT tape device. I've looked in the man pages (mt, mtio, tar,
- tps, etc.) but haven't found a reference to a DAT device.
-
- Any idea?
