I have a  4gig SCSI tape backup drive.

It's not working. :-(

It is the only device attached to a Adaptec 2910 SCSI controller.
It is ID 3 and the Card is ID 7
It comes up in the boot probe screen.  And is identified as
a Conner SCSI Drive.

I have also MAKEDEV 'd the appropriate devices in the /dev directory
	(sh MAKEDEV st0)

but when i run tar i get problems.
tar: can't write to /dev/rst0 : input/output error

in /var/messages:

/kernel st0 (ahc:0:3:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc: 24,0 Invalid field in CDB 
/kernel st0: bad request, must be between 0 and 0
/kernel st0 (ahc:0:3:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc: 24,0 Invalid field in CDB 


I'm using FreeBSD 2.1.6 off the Cdrom.


Thanks in Advance
