I get this every time I perform a dump on a non rewinding device, and then start another tape write (on a SLR tape). Doing a "mt eom" between commands makes the error go away, but I couldn't figure out what's wrong... why was the tape frozen? -- jimmy To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message

Possibly the tape drive needs cleaning, or the tape is bad. -- Toomas Aas | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * No problem is so big that it can't be run away from.
