Just to put my 2 cents in.... I have been running the DI30 onstream tape drive on version 4.0 e-smith for the last 3 to 4 months. I had to update the kernal to 2.2.16-9 and it works great with tar. I am sure that 2.2.16-12 supports the on-stream dI30. Second for the current backup system I have reprogrammed the backup scripts for cpio that gives me seletive backup were I believe the flexbackup does not and I may be wrong. Doyle
