	Hi all, 

	I am still trying to get my Archive Tape drive working with
my Amiga 2000. Every SCSI board vendor (I have a CLTD Kronos, but am
looking for a board that will directly work with the ARCHIVE) tells
me I need to write a driver for the archive. Now, I want to use BTN
to access the drive, but I am assuming I still need a driver...
The BTN handler uses SCSI direct protocol to access the Tape Drive,
and my C.Ltd controller does support SCSI Direct, now what kind of
driver do I need to write? Low Level routines to talk directly to the
Drive? I am missing some part of the modularity here I know, but I am
just confused!......The is a HardDisk.driver, and CLTD.device in the
DEVS directory, and SCSI-Link.Library in my LIBS: directory. Shouldn't
these drivers/libraries support SCSI direct (as the controller does?)
