      This HOWTO discusses essential do's and dont's for the
      ftape floppy tape driver under Linux. It focusses on
      the newest version which is ftape-4.02 at the time of
      this writing. This HOWTO is to be intended as first
      step help and source of information. The ftape driver
      interfaces to QIC-40, QIC-80, QIC-3010 and QIC-3020
      compatible drives, and to the Iomega Ditto 2GB and
      Ditto Max drives.  The QIC-3010 and QIC-3020
      standards are also known as `Travan' (TR-2 and TR-3).
      These drives connect via the floppy disk controller
      (FDC) which may be either an internal FDC or inside
      of certain parallel port floppy tape drives. Please
      refer to the section Supported drives for further
      information. ftape does not cover SCSI or QIC-02 tape
      drives.  DAT tape drives usually (always?) connect to
      a SCSI controller. This is but one of the Linux HOWTO
      documents.  You can get an index of the HOWTOs from
      the Linux HOWTO index, while the real HOWTO's can be
      fetched (using ftp) from
      sunsite.unc.edu:pub/Linux/doc/HOWTO (this is the
      ``official'' place) or via the World Wide Web from
      the Linux Documentation Project home page.
