Under RH7.2 [2.4.17] when I.........

	mt -f /dev/nqft0 status
I get...............................

	no such device

I have an external Ditto Max Pro which worked under RH6.1 [2.2.12-20]
installed by cable to the only parallel port on this machine. 

I have compiled and installed ftape4.04a from source, as well as
ftape-tools.

I load parport, paride, ftape, zftape and bpck modules before the mt
command.

The parallel port is at 0x378 and irq 7.

Thank you for helping,

Courtney
