Well, I downloaded xnx130 from sosco, which is the new Irwin driver
software, and installed it.
(Yes, I know its on hold again, but that's just for write protect
recognition only)
Now - I can't use the tape drive. I get I/O error messages from the
driver. I am using a known good (under MS-DOS w/EZTAPE 2.01) 125 drive,
with an Adaptec 2372A controller with the 125 as floppy position 2.
I either need this fixed, or a way to return to the original Irwin stuff
in the 2.3.1 release. (What do I delete/reinstall? Can I do it w/custom?)
I had this working, before I decided to "improve" and "upgrade". All
my earlier backups are in this original SCO Irwin format on DC-1000 tapes.
All I have on floppy is the original installation diskette set.
I've been fighting with this on and off for a month and I'm licked.
Anyone know the answers?
