In fact the method of using the tape modes was almost completely rewritten. If you are a user of tapes, and have had experience with the new method (using a control device), please let me know what you think about the new system. I'm particularly interested in hearing from anyone that has used the control device from the rc files to set up the system default modes for their device on bootup (that's what it was designed for). if you have used the tapes in 386BSD or freeBSD-1.0 and didn't notice that they have changed for 1.1, then see the man pages st(4) st(1) scsi(1) scsi(4) I would also like to hear from anyone that has used the scsi 'USER-MODE' operations. In fact any scsi commnets will be welcome. If you are writing, or working on, or know of anyone working on, any new drivers or modules.. let me know. send comments about the scsi system to: julian@ref.tfs.com (yes.. same machine but no longer 'public') thanks: julian
