Haugh II (jfh@rpp386.Dallas.TX.US) HASA, "S" Division What I have done with Irwin tape drives is to put a switch on the Irwin and floppy select jumper lines. The switch in one position will select the floppy and in the other it will select the tape drive. It worked nicely. Now all you have to do is figure how to plug three drives into a data cable made for two :-). Robert A. Pease {hplabs|fortune|idi|ihnp4|tolerant|allegra|glacier|olhqma}!oliveb!olivej!rap
