Hi!
You may want to keep your line length to something below 80 chars,
better even around 65 to 75 chars. It's much more readable
that way. (log lines & co though should not be brapped, IMHO).
'ere, let me reformat them ... much better.
Trying to kill the keyboard, [EMAIL PROTECTED] produced:

[no other error messages]
Lets see ... in FTAPE/include/linux/qic117.h:
#define QIC117_ERRORS {\
[...]
/*36*/ { "Write Reference Burst Failure", 1, },\
[...]
Looks like the tape has a hardware error (fatal). Nothing ftape
can do, I think. Does formatting work under DOS or Windows?
