Anyone familar enough with DAT drives to know what an extended-sense return of 0x20 (SSD_ILI) means? I'm trying to read a DAT from SGI and the driver returns this code, printing it as `st0: 262144-byte record too big' on my console. I've just been given a source license for SGI's InPerson video teleconferencing software (which I'd like to port) but I can't read the friggin' tape! Argh! :-( Any pointers appreciated. I've tried every conceivable blocksize with dd (and mt) with no luck.
