| |
Hi, I am getting a strange error while trying to use my ide-tape drive in kernel 2.4.20-18.9. In dmesg I see that the kernel sees the tape drive: hdf: Seagate STT8000A, ATAPI TAPE drive ide-tape: hdf <-> ht0: Seagate STT8000A rev 5.02 ide-tape: hdf <-> ht0: 600KBps, 14*26kB buffer, 5850kB pipeline, 80ms tDSC, DMA However, when I try and do a mt -f /dev/ht0 status , I get a device or resource busy error, and the following gets spit into dmesg: ide-tape: ht0: I/O error, pc = 34, key = 3, asc = 30, ascq = 0 ide-tape: ht0: I/O error, pc = 1, key = 3, asc = 30, ascq = 0 ide-tape: ht0: I/O error, pc = 0, key = 3, asc = 30, ascq = 0 ide-tape: ht0: drive not ready
What could be the problem here?
Thanks, Justin
