X-Confirm-Reading-To: "Jesse" X-pmrqc: 1 Priority: normal X-mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v2.42a) Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, I am running into a slight problem with my Colorado QIC-80 tape backup. You see, we are using 170mb QIC-80 tapes, however FT seems to only want to use 120mb tapes. So when it saves 120mb of data, it loops infinitly, writing 1k over and over and over, ad nauseam. It doesn't even stop when it reaches 170! If someone knows either a fix, a new version, or SOMETHING that I can do to get it work, I would gretaly appreciate it. Sincerly, Jesse Brown
