Subject: Support for non-SCSI tape drives?
Date: 1 Sep 1993 03:36:52 GMT

First off, I've already read every FAQ list I could get my hands on,
but I still don't know the answer to this (seemingly) simple question:

        Does Linux support any non-SCSI backup tape systems?

The reason I ask: I'm looking to purchase a (low-cost) PC system on
which to run Linux. SCSI controllers aren't exactly low-cost, however.

Please email replies; I'll post a summary if there's sufficient interest.
