Hi all,
I've a Linux Box with RH6.0 and kernel 2.2.x-x, I've setup it
for the use of a SCSI 4/8GB Dat Tape. When I use taper it reports an I/O
error... besides I tried to use mt tools configuring the tape with:
# stinit -f init.def
The file init.def has only one device configured in this way:
# A compressing DAT (DDS-1-DC or DDS-2)
manufacturer=HP model = "C1533A" {
scsi2logical=1 can-bsr can-partitions auto-lock
mode1 blocksize=1024 compression=1
}
Now when I try:
# tar cvf /dev/st0 /foo
I reports an I/O error, this error shows up even if I submit:
# tar czvf foo.tgz /foo
# dd if=foo.tgz of=/dev/st0 bs=1024
The tape is not broken, infact It works fine with Windog NT.
Any ideas... any help would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot, Nicola.
