Hi, After cvsup'ped to 3.4-stable, recompiling and reinstalling, I can no longer access the tapestreamer. I tried booting with the old 3.3-GENERIC kernel and everything works OK with that kernel. There's no problem with mt or tar, it's kernel related. Our tapestreamer is identified at reboot as sa0: <ARCHIVE Python 04106-XXX 7270> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device sa0: 7.812MB/s transfers (7.812MHz, offset 15) And it's made by Seagate. Trying to use mt status with a valid tape inserted results in both LEDs turned on (both the yellow and the green) and mt hangs. The only way to kill mt is to hit the eject button on the streamer. Below is the current dmesg output and the current kernel configuration file. The kernel configuration file was based on the GENERIC file from 3.3-release and I see no functional difference between the current kernel configuration file and the current GENERIC file. Perhaps there's some problem with the sa driver. Does someone have a clue? BTW, do I need the pass0 device? -- Here's the complete dmesg output: Copyright (c) 1992-1999 FreeBSD Inc.
