I've been having an annoying little problem using tar and the st driver when doing backups. This problem only occurs after a system reboot. After reboot, if I issue any tar command, say tar -tv /dev/rst0, I get the following error: st0: bad request, must be between 0 and 0 If I issue the same tar command immediately after this error, tar works and completes without an error. It works without error from this point on, until next reboot. What is it that I must do to initialize st to keep this from happening? Bob
