I've been having a problem reading data off a tape drive.  I run X, and the 
tape would read for a while and eventually the machine would simply hang and 
I could not change virtual consoles or do anything to find the problem.

I tried reading the tape on another machine.  Once it worked, two other 
times I had the same problem.

So I tried it again, but this time I did the restore from the vt0 instead 
of in X.  I noticed the kernel was dropping in to the debugger, with a 
"tag" of bt742a.

What's the real problem here, and what can be done to fix it?
