me again!
in a rare fit of prior planning, i actually backed up my tarfiles
onto a scsi tape. Unfortuneately, i seem to be unable to read it! bummer!
128: {42} tar -xv
st0: not ready
tar: can't open /dev/rst0 : Input/output error
128: {43} mt rewind
st0: not ready
mt: /dev/nrst0: Input/output error
here is dmesg:
nca0 at 0x1f88-0x1f8b irq 10 on isa
nca0: type ProAudioSpectrum-16
nca0 waiting for scsi devices to settle
(nca0:4:0): " " type 1 removable SCSI 1
st0(nca0:4:0): Sequential-Access drive offline
is there something obvious that i am forgetting? is it broken? i set all
the rst0 and nrst0 to be readable by u, me , and my brother's cat and i
still get the same errors.. :-(
