Awhile back, someone (can't remember who you are, sorry) asked about the DD=
S
DAT drive in the ANS 500, and if it was supported by NetBSD1.5.

Well, I finally got around to popping a tape in and checking it.

[04:22:27 root]mt status
SCSI tape drive, residual=3D0
ds=3D3<Mounted>
er=3D0
blocksize: 0 (0, 0, 0, 0)
density: 19 (0, 0, 0, 0)
current file number: 0
current block number: 0

So, it appears to be supported.  Now all I have to do is apply my Newbie
Unix Learning Powers=81 to attempt to figure out exactly how to use the drive
:)
