^^^^^^^^
Xenix 386 2.3.1 could be made to recognize a Mountain TD4000
type backup unit with a support level supplement; 2.3.2 includes a
driver. BUT NOTE WELL: If you are using a dual floppy system,
you can't daisy chain the backup unit off the alternate drive
the way you can under MS-DOS. Mountain tape backup units are
nice, easy-to-install units for DOS, but the company isn't in-
terested in supporting Xenix. Unless SCO itself has updated
the driver, you'll have to forget about that "b:" drive.
