I'm (unsuccessfully) trying to get tjhe local WangDAT Modem 3100 to function correctly. The tape mounts fine; I can use mt to rewind and offline the tape. However, I can not seem to read or write to it, without it having problems .. Boot log: >web2 /kernel: (aha0:5:0): "WangDAT Model 3100 02.2" type 1 removable SCSI 2 >web2 /kernel: st0(aha0:5:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13, drive\ empty [And I thought there would be much rejoicing!] "mt status" reports .. >Present Mode: Density = X3B5/88-185A Blocksize variable >---------available modes--------- >Mode 0: Density = 0x00 Blocksize variable >Mode 1: Density = 0x00 Blocksize variable >Mode 2: Density = 0x00 Blocksize variable >Mode 3: Density = 0x00 Blocksize variable [And I still thought there would be much rejoicing!] "tar c /u1/jfesler" reports .. >tar: Removing leading / from absolute path names in the archive. >tar: can't write to /dev/rst0 : Input/output error [Damn! - maybe it needs to be "erase"d ..?!?] "mt erase" >mt: /dev/nrst0: erase: Input/output error Anyone have any ideas? I will be following the newsgroup; however, propogation is a bit slow at times, and an email response would be _greatly_ appreciated ..
