Tape controllers

Hi,

is there any support for VME bus tape controllers (xt) like the Xylogics 
472 in NetBSD?

No.  There is only support for the xd (753 or 7053) and xy (450/451) SMD disk
controllers.  It might be possible to write a driver using the xd/xy drivers
and the manuals at http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/xylogics/ as references.

Thanks,

J

PS.  I don't know when the xd and xy drivers were last tested on real
hardware.
