I need some help setting up an Exabyte EXB-4200c Rev 235 4mm tape drive on a
Black NeXTstation Color Turbo running NeXTstep 3.3?
Black NeXTstation Color Turbo running NeXTstep 3.3?
First are there any hardware configuration files i need to modify?
Secondly,
I am trying a local dump using the following paramaters
dump 0 / f /dev/rst0
It appears to access the tape drive but it never works correctly. What am I
doing wrong?

There is something special about exagyte tape lentgh, I use
dump 0uns 1200000
Can't remember where I found that, I guess librarian or nextanswers will
tell you. Also, exabyte is /dev/(n)rxt0.
