I've got some patches around that might fix it, submitted by the author of the `od' driver. I've never got round to test them anyway, but after a Great Cleanup, my MO drive at least takes my one and only 1024-byte cartridge again. UFS is far more tricky to fix than just the drivers only. This is why it works for CD-ROMs: they don't apply to UFS, only to ISO9660. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
