At this point the drive accepts the tape and then settles into a slow blinking of the "TAPE" light. Has anyone had this and solved it, or have any suggestions? Previously the drive worked fine under NT Server (which was subsequently replaced by FreeBSD) and now I cannot get the drive to function. MT and camcontrol etc. present errors... Thanks much for the time and please email direct, as I am not subscribed at the moment. Thanks.
