The following reply was made to PR kern/1929; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Justin T. Gibbs" <gibbs@freefall.freebsd.org> To: tli@jnx.com Cc: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: kern/1929: HP C1536A DAT drive errors Date: Wed, 30 Oct 1996 12:02:53 -0800 >This occurs on multiple tapes so we have either a kernel problem or a drive >failure. We don't have access to a second drive to eliminate the drive >failure case. As this started coincident with a kernel change.... The only thing that has changed recently is the aic7xxx driver, but I find it hard to believe that it would suddenly report media errors (a status indication returned from the drive) because of these changes. Why not boot the old kernel and see if your problem still occurs? I think your drive needs to have its heads cleaned or to be sent in for service. -- Justin T.
