[-- Attachment #1 --]
I have recently purchased a new tape drive autoloader (Sony DDS autoloader
TSL-S9000L) and had hoped to use it under FreeBSD.  I have it attached to
an Adaptec 2940U2W via an external connection.  The drive is terminated
and the controller is set to auto-terminate.  There are no other devices
on this controller.

Relavent boot dmesg (full boot dmesg attached):
pcib0: <Host to PCI bridge> on motherboard

It might be worth noting that it shares an irq with the ata controller
(although I thought I didn't need to worry about these things any more)
see:
atapci1: <HighPoint HPT370 ATA100 controller> port
0xe800-0xe8ff,0xe400-0xe403,0xe000-0xe007,0xdc00-0xdc03,0xd800-0xd807 irq

mt status responds with :

and mt rew et al all appear to work.  However if I try to write a dump to
it I get the following error:

and dump tells me write error 20 blocks into volume.

uname -a yields:
FreeBSD gw1.techiebod.com 4.4-STABLE FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE #5: Mon Dec 10
18:59:59 GMT 2001     root@gw1.techiebod.com:/usr/tmp
/obj/fs/Source/FBSD-stable/sys/GW1  i386

Can I give any more information that will be helpful?
Can anyone suggest anything for me to try as I am now a bit lost here.

TIA

Henry
