I hope this isn't bringing up an old thread, if it is just point me in the right direction.

I have an RH system (RH9 upgraded to ES3, upgraded to the 2.6.14 kernel). I'm running bacula 1.38.1 compiled from source. For backup hardware, I have a ADIC VLS DLT400 that backs up a Win2k v1.38.1 client over the network.

All of the following was done on the same tape:
   btape test command, including autochanger test, works fine.
   btape fill test works fine.
the client backup will run, but the job will only write the first 60 to 100 Mb to tape, error out, mark the tape full, then ask for another tape.

Here is the error I get on the console:

st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes.
(scsi1:A:2:0): Unexpected busfree in Data-out phase
SEQADDR == 0xa0
st0: Error 70000 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0, host bt 0x7).

I do rememeber some discussion of problems with the 2.6 series kernel, I don't know if this is a symptom of that. If there is any other output I can supply that might help diagnosis, please let me know. Any other suggestions for correcting this are welcome.

Thanks for you time.
