I have an Adaptec 284x local bus SCSI card with one device attached: an Exabyte FS1G tape drive. When booting the system, BSD tells me that the card is device st0 and the tape drive is device 0 on the card. It shows my tape drive as having density code 0x92. Whenever I do a "mt status", I get the following: st0:Cannot set selected mode 7:unknown tape drive type A "mt rewind" rewinds the tape, but I get the following: st0: cannot set selected mode Is there somewhere that I need to set parameters for my tape drive, or am I doomed with incompatible hardware? -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Paul Browning paulb@metnet.epflbalto.org | | | | "Modems are my life....."
