From: doug@owl.isis.org (Douglas W Murray) Subject: Adaptek 1540 and SCSI 8mm drive Date: Fri, 24 Jul 1992 01:17:50 GMT
Hi all,
I was wondering if it would be possible to install a Adaptek 1540 card in
my 386 system with an 8mm drive in order to get Linux to do backups on?
I am pretty confident that installing a SCSI card should be quite feasable,
but I would want to get my 8mm tape backup unit (the office loaner in fact)
to work from it. As you can imagine, I am not a hardware person (or a big
Linux'er for that matter). I would really appreciate some constructive
comments on this.
Thanking all in advance,
Doug!
P.S. One last thing, I would like to thank all who have replied to my
previous posting (a question in fact) on 'Help mounting floppy' for the
fantastic (read helpfull) response. I would also like to thank the
contributors of Linux for a GREAT OS. I am fun like I use to when I first
started in cs. I was missing the occasional hair pulling exercises :-}
