I have Colorado 250 Tape drive. This afternoon, I did dump the /usr partition to 2 QIC80 tapes. Now I try 'restore i' or 'restore x', I got the error message /dev/rmt8: No such file or directory So, I tried to MAKEDEV rmt8, but I got rmt8 - no such device name Well, if you have experiences in dumping filesystems and restore, then would you tell me what is the best way to restore? Thanks in advance. Regards, --Uh ---------------------- Uh Gang-Ryung e-mail: uh@cs.fsu.edu Work Phone: 644-3366 ----------------------
