by Hi,
I just bought a Exabyte Eagle96 Tape backup unit it came with the
accellorator card. I am currently running Redhat 4.0 w/ kernel 2.0.18. I
download ftape 3.02 which from the "vendors.h" says it supports this
drive & accellerator card. I installed the ftape distribution in my
kernel source and everything compliled nicely. When I rebooted and tried
to access the drive I get a steady stream of errors to the messages file
"ftape-ctl.c (ftape_get_drive_status)-error status set"
What does this error mean and what can I do to get around this. Is it a
problem with the accellorator card? or the fact that I have a pci(Triton
II) motherboard?
Thanks for your help in advance.
