I have  a  problem with   some tapes produced    with a 60   MB tape  drive
(Archive). I don't have the exact model but I guess it is a 2060S.

Sympthoms :

reading the table of content is satisfactory :

370 [21:11] roberto@keltia:/sources/sound> tar tv
-rw-r--r-- regnauld/bin 2485966 Jun 20 20:26 1995 condat_france_culture.au.gz

Then trying to extract the file yields the following result :

372 [21:13] roberto@keltia:/sources/sound> tar xv
tar: read error on /dev/rst0 : Input/output error
373 [21:13] roberto@keltia:/sources/sound> tar xv
tar: read error on /dev/rst0 : Input/output error

and the following messages appear in syslog :

st0(bt0:4:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST field replaceable unit: 20
st0: Cannot set selected modest0: oops not queued
st0(bt0:4:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST field replaceable unit: 20
st0: Cannot set selected modest0: oops not queued

Getting the tape out of the drive and back is satisfactory :

374 [21:15] roberto@keltia:/sources/sound> tar xv
condat_france_culture.au.gz

but trying to reread the tape doesn't work :

375 [21:18] roberto@keltia:/sources/sound> tar tv
tar: read error on /dev/rst0 : Input/output error

To resume, dealing with  60 MB works the  first time (on /dev/rst0) but not
afterward.  When dealing  with multiple  filesets per  tape,  it also fails
unless one use the /dev/nrst0 (I know I should use it but I typed /dev/rst0
by mistake and the problem first appeared).
