Greetings,

I think that mt erase only erases the first fileSys on the tape.  So my question
is if I have 3 fileSys on the tape how do I erase all at once?

Thanks!

FYI:  The reason I have to do this is the tape gets block size confused
sometimes (maybe once per month)  and this is the only way I have found to fix
the tape problem:(  It happens at random on different boxes and
tapes.   I use tar for backups.  FreeBSD 3.4  Any thoughts?
