I have Interactive 386/ix v2.0.2 and Archive VP 60e tape drive using
D600 cartridge (60meg). I have no problem installing and running tape
only in first time. After at the end of tape, the message displays to
insert another volume of tape and press y to continue. It is always
stopped with write errors. This is same for tar, cpio, afio and even
commercial ctar. I believe that there is something I have to modify
default setting under /etc.
I have NO problem with Xenix and SCO Unix 3.2 using same tape drives and
I can use five tapes in single full backup but I can not do more than
one tape in one backup.
Can you please help me with setting up Archive tape so I can do more
than one tape in single backup?
Thank you for your time...
