I am looking for a way to talk to 9-track, 1/2" tape from 386 XENIX. I have the tape drive and an Overland TC-50 controller (that has been talking on 286 XENIX for a while). The solutions seem to be in the order of buy a new controller and some software. This equals $1100 to $2000 depending on the choice. Seems to me like a little driver software and the TC-50 should work fine on the 386. Anyone know of such stuff and/or an inexpensive way to get this together. This includes the idea of a SCSI to Pertec adapter and driver software. Thanks. -- Phil Hughes, SSC, Inc. P.O.
