We're moving to Berkely 4.1 UNIX on our VAX soon and have a
hardware problem.  Our tape drive is not supported in the
Berkely release.  If you could help me locate a driver for it
I would be quite appreciative.

It is a Digidata tape drive and controller which emulates
a DEC TM11.  This is a UNIBUS device which I understand is
used prevalently with PDP11s.  A VAX driver, though, has
not been easy pickings.

Needless to say, we can't even install UNIX without a tape driver!
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Please send Mail to decvax!mit-vax!its!gary
