Really? The big argument that has kept me from changing the absolutely bogus and stupid FreeBSD EOM behaviour was to not break tape packages like amanda. If it's broken anyway, there's no reason not to (and *this* would solve the damned conundrum about QIC drives I've been on and off wrestling with for some weeks- then *all* drives would have QIC filemark at EOM behaviour- except for the (almost unobtainable) HP, Kennedy or M4 1/2" Reel drives....). I mean, if it's only a couple in tree utilities like tcopy I have to fix, that's a no brainer... -matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
