It seems I can successfully change the block size if there is no tape inserted. (Or after an "mt offline", which presumably amounts to the same thing even if the tape is still physically in the drive.) Changing the block size after a tape has been inserted but not yet read from works sometimes. No recognizable pattern yet. Changing the block size after the tape has been read from fails reliably. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
