Hi, I have already posted this, and got no response. Is it really so big question? I have a HP-SCSI-Streamer. Until now, I have written more than one file on my types. this worked very well. I used the command "mt -f /dev/nst0 eod" to position the tape to the end an wrote another file on it. For searching I used "fsf 1" and so on. Now I overwrote the whole tape. I rewinded the tape an put I file on it from the beginning of the tape. Until some days, when I used "mt eod" the tape was positioned after this file, but now it is positioned after some more files (the old ones which where on the tape befor). IMHO the old files should normaly not be acessible, which also was the behaviour some days ago. So what is happening now? The only thing which I have changed and which might have to do with streamers, is the kernel. Does anyone have a idea? What do I have to do to get the tape positioned after the last valid file? I use Kernel 2.2.12 and mt-st-0.5b. Thank you Oliver -- �� �� ,,, ���� (o o) --oOO-(_)-OOo-- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - [EMAIL PROTECTED]
