$ I am thinking about using a Colorado Memory Systems 40Mbyte tape drive
$ as a cheap ($240) backup device for my 386 SysV box at home. It is an
$ internal drive that sits on a floppy disk controller. CMS claims
$ to have a driver for Xenix, but not Unix. Does anybody have a driver for
$ this unit under SysV, or perhaps source code to the Xenix driver??
$ Any help would be appreciated.

Pull out your manual for the CMS drive. In it you will find a phone
number for CMS. Call it. They will sell you a driver for $50. Why post
on Usenet before calling the company to see if they have one?
