WT(4)                        Device Drivers Manual                       WT(4)

NAME
     wt - Archive/Wangtek cartridge tape driver

SYNOPSIS
     wt0 at isa? port 0x300 irq 5 drq 1

DESCRIPTION
     The wt driver provides support for the following Archive and Wangtek
     boards:

           QIC-02
           QIC-36

     Raw devices are indicated by an "r" preceding the device name.  The
     driver can be opened with either rewind on close (/dev/rst*) or no rewind
     on close (/dev/nrst*) options.

     The tape format is specified by adding 8 or 16 to the device number.  For
     example, for the wt0 device's raw rewind on close device nodes, /dev/rwt0
     is the 150 MByte density device, /dev/rwt8 is the 120 MByte density
     device, and /dev/rwt16 is the 60 MByte device.

BUGS
     The wt driver conflicts unpleasantly with the we driver (SMC Ethernet
     adapters) at the same I/O address.  The probe reprograms their EEPROMs.
