Things seem to work well as long as I use a 32K block size, however, the drive seems to get this error: ast0: WEOF - ILLEGAL REQUEST asc=24 ascq=00 error=04 whenever an end of file mark is written to it. Doing a "mt -f /dev/nrast0 fsf 1" cause I/O error, but that maybe because an EOF mark was never written because of the error listed above. Checking the mail archives, I noticed that someone else had the exact same problem, but no there was no follow up postings. Any help on how to fix this problem with be great. Any suggestion of an inexpensive way to backup a 30gig drive would be good too, that way I can throw out the onstream drive.
