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 Here is my original message: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
