I've hooked up my old Wangtek DC-600 (60 MB 1/4" cartridge tape) drive
and compiled a kernel with the wt driver. wt0 is probed and identified
on boot, but I'm having problems using it. If I try to read from the
tape with a dd from /dev/rwt0, I get perhaps a block and then a huge
stream of "dma channel 1 not finished" errors. All I ever get from the
tape is nulls.

I'm pretty sure the drive is working all right, because I ran the DOS
diagnostics (from Colorado) and the drive tested out just fine. I've
got the port, IRQ and DMA channel configured as per the board: port
338-33b, IRQ 9, and DMA 1. Nothing else in my system or in my config
file is using these ports or IRQs as far as I can tell.

Has anyone any thoughts on where I go from here?
