HI ALL,

The patch below (from
Thomas.Quinot@Cuivre.FR.EU.ORG)did solve the problem
with the 6 byte READ(08) CDB.

But now I am having problem with the WRITE(0A)
command.

With the following CDB

CDB: 0x0A 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x7F 0x00

cam_snd_ccb() returns error

Also I get the following error message on the console

cam_periph_mapmem: attempt to map 68608 bytes, which
is greater than 
DFLTPYS(65536)

The current BlockLength has been set to 512 in the
Mode Select Parameter 
block descriptor.

Prior to the above write cdb I did suceed in writing a
block to the tape.
The following CDB : 0x0A 0x01 0x00 0x00 0x01 0x00 did
succeed.

Could anyone please help me out with this problem?

Thanks.

Rohit
