Hi,
if I type:
# mt rewind
mt: /dev/rst0: Invalid argument
# mt erase
mt: /dev/rst0: Invalid argument
.
.
.
and in dmesg is same error, and drive produce no action.
...
st0(ahc0:4:0): Check Condition (error 0x70) on opcode 0x15
SENSE KEY: Illegal Request
ASC/ASCQ: End-Of-Partition/Medium Detected
st0: cannot set selected mode
...
I tried this tape drive on linux box for a while and
I could rewind, fsf or erase and so.. but I couldn't
read or write. :-(
Thanks
Milan Prihoda.

Hey Milan,
I admit I haven't used a tape drive in some time, but could that be
indicative of a blank tape?
Make sure the tape really is rewound:
$ sudo mt rewind
