I haven't checked this change yet (freefall seems to be down again), but I can assure you I'm really pissed off if somebody changed hardware block to SCSI logical block- the terms were specifically and precisely chosen. The author of the change should check with someone who knows first. SCSI logical block is one method of tape positioning. Hardware block is another. Confusing the two by making random edits is not good. On Tue, 4 May 1999, Kenneth D.
