It will take me a few hours, back to work today. Same thing happens with dump too. The Tape drives are SCSI Quantum DLT used on both machines i386 and sparc64 (Sun Netra) using version 258174 of vfs_bio.c on current kernels, I was able to do a full dump of both machines without a problem. The error is when trying to read or write to the tape drive. What is the exact command for kdump that you want ? I can do it when I get home this afternoon.
