I've been having problems with getting an OnStream DI-30 Tape Drive working
on 4.3-RELEASE. The driver claims that this tape drive is supported. I've
posted help request with the problem description to both freebsd-questions
and freebsd-hardware and have received no replies. I've also searched the
archives.

Do I open a PR with send-pr now?

Thanks,
Kory

Note: I posted this question to freebsd-question and did not receive any
replies. I'm trying -hardware to see if I get lucky.

I'm running 4.3-RELEASE GENERIC kernel with an OnStream DI-30 IDE tape
drive. Things seem to work well as long as I use a 32K block size, however,
the drive seems to get this error:

	ast0: WEOF - ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=24 ascq=00 error=04

whenever an end of file mark is written to it.

Checking the mail archives, I noticed that someone else had the exact same
problem, but no there was no follow up postings.

Any help on how to fix this problem with be great.

Any suggestion of an inexpensive way to backup a 30gig drive would be good
too, that way I can throw out the onstream drive.

Thanks,
Kory
