How big are your tapes?  "buffer" died while trying to write a chunk of
data, at about 5.7GB worth.

You might also check syslog messages to see if the tape driver had anything
to say.  (Something like that is more likely, because for a tape full you
get an ENOSPACE message usually not an EIO)

If the driver seems ok and the tape wasn't full, maybe try with "buffer"
set to off to check that that isn't the problem.  (it'll be slower, but
it'll be the same data on the tape)
