Thanks Chris .. I tryed the ch device - no joy - but it did lead me to the fix which was rather stupid on my part (uncommenting st and rebuild). Sorry, I grew up SVR4 and work on Solaris all day (mind pollution ?) so I didn't check his kernel or think to boot generic which would have caught it I guess. I am having probs with dump though - ex: dump 0fu /dev/rst0 /dev/rsd0s1f I get prompted for the next volume (always). I am using "dump 0fua" as a workaround but is there anyway to get it to properly recognize the density (0x24) and blocksize in freeBSD so I can span several tapes ?
