SCSI DDS tape compression

2009-01-21 Thread Charles Stroom
Hi, I am using amanda with DDS tapes without h/w compression and during boot the compression is disabled using mt. I noticed however a different behaviour between the mt in the cpio 2.6 package (in opensuse 10.2) and the version 2.9 which is in opensuse 11.1. The command is mt -f [dev]
