I don't understand what problems you are having.  If you are complaining
that the file /sys/sun4/conf/XDXT330 does not exist, that is true but
is not a problem.  The GENERIC file has entries for xct0 and xt0
if you what to access the Xylogics 1/2-inch tape controller.  All the
device-driver modules are on disk.

So what's wrong with simply running the GENERIC kernel on your Sun-4/300?

P.S. The XD and XT drivers also work on the 3/280 to 4/490 upgrade.
