How do i get ansitape to recognize an alternate tape device ?
It does not make sense for it to default to the qic device.
Here is what I get:
mcirps2:/usr/people/karron/D.Image/D.mri:356ansitape -c -f/dev/mt/xmnrtape *
ansitape ioctl: Resource temporarily unavailable
ansitape write: I/O error
-f/dev/mt/xmnrtape: character device - skipped
ansitape write: I/O error
ansitape write: I/O error
ansitape write: I/O error
ansitape ioctl: Resource temporarily unavailable
ansitape write: I/O error
tape: I/O error
hard write error: write aborted
ansitape ioctl: Resource temporarily unavailable
Exit 1
mcirps2:/usr/people/karron/D.Image/D.mri:357ansitape -c -f /dev/mt/xmnrtape *
ansitape ioctl: Resource temporarily unavailable
ansitape write: I/O error
-f: character device - skipped
/dev/mt/xmnrtape: character device - skipped
ansitape write: I/O error
ansitape write: I/O error
ansitape write: I/O error
ansitape ioctl: Resource temporarily unavailable
ansitape write: I/O error
tape: I/O error
hard write error: write aborted
ansitape ioctl: Resource temporarily unavailable
Exit 1
What gives ?
bru, tar, dd, cpio all work just fine.
I am using a cypher tape drive and a xylogic 772 controller. The
xmnrtape is a hard link to xmt0d0nr.1600.
