I am running FreeBSD 2.2.7.

I have an Adaptec 1520 SCSI CONTROLLER and  a TANDBURG TDC 3800 SCSI Tape Drive.

Both the controller card and the tape drive are sensed and recognized.
And the tape is showing that it is write enabled.

When I try to list the contents of the tape using the command

	tar  t
the system appears to hang.

A few minutes later I start receiving an error message

	/kernel: st0(aic0:2:0): timed out

This will continue until I reboot the system.

I am unable to kill the process 

	tar  t

The drive and the card are known to be in good working order.

I had removed them this morning from a system running 	SCO UNIX.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
