[comp.sys.sun] Delta MicroSystems SS-2000T 8mm tape drive problems

mitch@hplabs.hp.com (Mitchell S. Gorman) (10/20/89)

Has anyone gotten this particular 8mm drive to work on a 3/470, or at
least under 4.0.3?  

I've been having beaucoup problems setting this puppy up.  I've has Dennis
from DM on the phone several times, and have gotten a tape containing
smt.o.  Unfortunately, I am STILL not able to successfully build a kernel.

I figure it's time to take it to the streets, and ask the people who know
this crap inside and out.  (Don't look at me - I'm a PC-Dos weenie!  :^)

So can anyone help?  Should we chuck this thing and go for a different
manufacturer?  Should we buy low and sell high?  Will Stephanie marry
Brant, or will Jennifer reveal the dark secret of Brant's past
relationship with Kyle, Aunt Elizabeth, and those three reindeer from
Lappland?
