>Description:

When trying to do backups to my FreeBSD 2.1 system my 4mm 5gig Python
tape drive reports "st0(ahc0:4:0): Target Busy" numerous times and
then aborts the dump.
	I've tried replacing the cable but that hasn't had any
positive affect.

>How-To-Repeat:

 	Send a large dump to the tape drive.
