Hi --
I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for a relatively inexpensive
non-SCSI tape backup unit that works under RedHat 5.0. I'd like to be
able to backup ~4-6GB of data. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I am using a Exabyte Eagle TR-3 which attaches to the floppy controller.
It works great with ftape. You can check out the ftape developers page and
see what tape drives are supported. Sorry but I don't have the URL handy.

1. Can I use a non SCSI tape backup with Linux?
I am looking to purchase a tape backup (250M range) for my system. Looking
at the compatability list, I noticed that only SCSI drives are listed. I
am hoping this document is wrong....Is anybody out there running with
a non SCSI tape drive? If so, which is it...and how did you get it to
work (I also need it to function under DOS, but I figure this is pretty
simple).
I'm running 0.99pl13 (but I have 15 on cd just waiting to load...I purchased
this kernel on cd for the soundblaster cd support :) oops...).
I would appreciate it if you mailed any responses to me. Our news reader
has just come back up after three months of being "temporarily unavailable",
and is now listed as "potentially stable".
Thanks for the help!
