I believe the kernel creates these files for you, upon bootup, provided
you have ftape support compiled into the kernel.  You do have ftape
support compiled into the kernel don't you?

If I am wrong about the automatic creation of these files, and you have
ftape compiled into the kernel, try the following:

# cd /dev
# mknod rft0 c 27 0
# mknod nrft0 c 27 4

After these commands, set the permissions on each, as desired.  The rft0
is the rewinding version;  nrft0 is the non-rewinding device.

I use ftape regularly and can help you out in other areas re this
driver.  Email me for more assistance.

Good luck,
