1. A Word From The Maintainer Of Ftape.

This is a very incomplete attempt to create a FAQ for the Ftape Floppy Tape Device Driver.

You might encounter references to the following addresses while reading this document:

• The maintainer of the Ftape FAQ : Johan De Wit <[email protected]>

• The Ftape Mailing List : <[email protected]>

There is surely quite a lot missing. Please feel free to improve this FAQ. The preferred way of doing this is to post to the Ftape Mailing List in case you have a question that isn't answered here.

Also, if you are already reading the list regularly and have the impression that some questions occur again and again, feel free to send that question and possibly an answer in the format indicated below to the maintainer of the Ftape FAQ AND to Ftape Mailing List.

If you make FAQ related postings, then please DON'T FORGET to prepend the word "[FAQ]" to the subject of your posting. Please don't add the word "FAQ" to the subject if you post something that isn't related to the FAQ.

That's all for now.

Claus-Justus Heine.
