Well, since no one has gotten back to me saying that they have gotten 
the Iomega Ditto 420 tape drive to work under freeBSD, I was wondering 
if anyone who has(or had) the drive has ever gotten it to work.  I would
be interested in hearing (and if you did get it to work, did you do any-
thing special).  If this drive does not work with BSD, then I will ask 
that a note be made in the hardware documentation (as other QIC 80
drives
are supposed to work).  Thanks.
