Subject: Re: Semi-OT: DECstation/TZ30 question
I know it's fussy on PC SCSI controllers, but I
expected it to work on a
DECstation since some of the older ones came with TZ30's. I'm suspecting
the 5000/133 is too new of a model to support it (sort of like trying to
use a RRD40 (think that's the right designation for the external SCSI
CD-ROM with the wierd caddies) on a Alpha (though the Alpha will recognize
it, the software won't allow it).
I guess you're doing something wrong there. That's exactly the way i made my
2.11BSD tapes a year ago. A TZ30 on a DecStation 5000/133 running NetBSD.
No problems.
cheers,
