Have a new box running 4.7-RELEASE-p10. It's a Dell with a 20/40 GIG Traven IDE tape drive in it. When trying to backup to the tape and/or restore from the tape, I get the following error message: modice# tar cvf /dev/ast0 * ast0: REZERO command timeout - resetting ata2: resetting devices .. done If there are only 10 or so files in the directory, they do backup and can be restored, but you still get the error messages... If there are more than 10, you get the above error messages, and only the first 10 (sometimes only 8) files get backed up. Anyone seen this before?
