I inherited a spare CDC 9-track tape drive with this Emulex TC01 tape coupler.
I am trying to add this interface to our MicroVAX II so we have another tape
drive/media besides the TK50 system.
I edited the system configuration file to add two lines:
controller tm0 at uba0 csr 0172520 vector tmintr
tape te0 at tm0 drive 0
and then rebuilt the kernel "by the book". I powered down and added the
tape coupler to the card cage in slots near the tail end (before the hard
disc controller). In the process of booting, I see the error message:
tm0 at uba0 csr 172520 didn't interrupt
What major and minor parameters should I use with 'mknod' to establish a 'dev'
entry for this new device?
Can you think of anything else that is preventing this installation?
