(fsf 2 vs fsf 1) why do you have to use 2 in place of one. the paramter is the number of files to space over the the forward direction. fsf 0 does not move teh tape. i sent a detailed description of the drive to freebsd-hackers (or was it questiosn?) around march 13th. it does not yet appear in the search results on hte www.freebsd.org web page ;(. there is a copy in my home directory on freefall ~jmb/anaconda. i can mail out copies to those that are interested.
