In some article, I sat here telling a sad story about a dead Archive tape drive

Ah, I check the sdevice file, but not the mdevice file. Boy do I feel like
a fool (but I'm also mad at ISC - they shouldn't have overwritten my mdevice
entry).
Anyway, the problem is that the ISC update changed the DMA channel from a 3
to a 1 and hence the problem.
Thanks go out to Jim Sullivan of HCR (now SCO, Canada), who describe the
problem exactly.
