Quick, and probably fruitless, question:
Using the regular AT&T (Wangtek-made) 125 MB Streaming Tape drive,
is there a way to write tapes at a lower density such that they can
be read by a 60 MB drive? There is only one set of device drivers
included in the Cartridge Tape Utilities (varying by retension and
rewind only), so it doesn't look promising. I am using CTU version
2.1, UNIX Sys V/386 Release 3.2.2.
It does *read* 60 MB tapes fine -- I used cartridge tape to copy
terminfos from an IBM RT, and it worked like a champ...
