I rebooted, and being a sucker for punishment, did an "mt status"
with no tape in the drive.  On the console:

# mt status
st0: not ready
mt: /dev/nrst0: Device busy

st0(nca0:4:0): NOT READY asc:3a,0 Medium not prsent


push the tape in, wait a few seconds, and try again:

# mt status
st0: not ready
mt: /dev/nrst0: Device busy

st0(nca0:4:0): NOT READY asc:4,1
st0(nca0:4:0):  Logical unit is in process of becoming ready

wait until the light has gone out, and try again and:

# mt status
<freeze for a few minutes>
Present Mode:   Density = 0x00         Blocksize variable
---------available modes---------
Mode 0:         Density = 0x00         Blocksize variable
Mode 1:         Density = 0x00         Blocksize variable
Mode 2:         Density = 0x00         Blocksize variable
Mode 3:         Density = 0x00         Blocksize variable

nca0/4/0 (st0) timed out
nca0/4/0 (st0) timed out

[this time I didn't try eject the tape while it was `working']

But, the next command I did was an "mt offl" (tape still in the drive)
and it panic'd straight away, in the same was as before.

nca0 at 0x358-0x35f irq 7 on isa
nca0: type NCR-5380
(nca0:4:0): "WANGTEK 6130-HS 4G16" type 1 removable SCSI 2
st0(nca0:4:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13,  drive empty

controller      nca0    at isa? port 0x358 bio irq 7 vector ncaintr
controller      scbus0  #base SCSI code
device          st0     #SCSI tapes

I'm going to try again with SCSIDEBUG & SCSI_REPORT_GEOMETRY.
