TinyCore and DAT drive
curaga:
The tape support is not enabled in our kernel, so you won't get a /dev/st0. However, the mtx suite seems to support generic SCSI, ie /dev/sg0, which is enabled.

No ...
There's no /rmt under /dev.

Yes, I know.
But I cannot get it done.
I have a two button mouse with a scroll wheel (Genius NetScroll 120)
Can't see how to configure it with the CPanel app.

Any chances for that, eventually?
I see TC as a very usefull tool.
IMO, it would be good to have tape support in the kernel.

I'll have to look into that then.
Edit: no, 'mtx' is not in the repository, at least I cannot find it under 'mtx'.
Thanks.

You can find the source at http://sourceforge.net/projects/mtx/

Usually you can press the wheel, it acts as the third button. If your mouse can't, you can select a 2-button mouse in xsetup -> pressing left and right buttons simultaneously is used to paste.

It could be enabled in the scsi extension in 7.x, yeah.

OK, thanks.
I'll try that.

That would be nice.
Maybe in 6.5? =-)
I have Core+ installed on a CF card and boot it through one of the ports of the MoBo's on-board IDE controller. My idea is to make it my 'do anything' tool, a sort of low level access to my rig with which to do maintenance, repairs, backups, imaging, pertitions, resizing, etc.
Further on, with the addition of Grub use it to boot my other OSs from there, these being XPPro SP3 and the lately deceased #! Linux.
To this end, having SCSI tape support would really be a great thing.
Other SCSI tools like lsSCSI would be nice too.
Thanks in advance,
MM
