| |
As appears, when I try to access /dev/qft0 like e.g. tar -cf /dev/qft0 kerneld loads only ftape.o module but does not load zftape.o module. With only ftape.o module loaded ftape does not work at all but bombs out with "operation not supported by device" error. So the only way to make ftape work in 2.1.85 is to load ftape.o and zftape.o manually with insmod. This is not how I used to do with earlier kernels when kerneld loaded ftape.o automatically (it still does it, but ftape.o doesn't do any good without zftape.o).
Other than that ftape works OK in 2.1.85.
Cordially, Sergei
