Before anyone asks me about this I'll point out it is Julian's work, and though I'll be happy to help as much as I can I really don't know much about different types of tapes.

We don't have the IMMEDIATE bit set in the rewind command, and so I guess you will tie up the bus if you don't allow it to disconnect. -- Peter Dufault Real Time Machine Control and Simulation HD Associates, Inc.
