At this time, the pt driver does not support most of the mtops
ioctl()s that the general backup packages seem to require.

tar, cpio, etc work fine, but if you want something more elaborate,
you'll have to join the clamouring chorus that's demanding the mtops ;-)

Of course, if you'd like to _implement_ the mtops, please feel free to
contact me !
