Could you tell us all what density mode you are using. A virgin tape gives a `mt status' of 0x45 (undefined ?). Using this mode I seem to have problems mt'ing around on the tape. I'm worried about setting it to another mode with not much hope of returning to the original 8-O btw, I was glad to hear of your success! -- Tom Jackson I'm ProChoice->FreeBSD toj@gorilla.net http://www.freebsd.org http://tulsix.utulsa.edu/~tjackson "Out in the Ozone Again"
