Appending files to and exabyte tape on a sun Sparcstation

[Toivo Pedaste]

We have a Exabyte 8mm tape drive on a sun Sparcstation and would like
to be able to append files to the end of a tape without having to know
how many files that have been written already.

The eom function on mt seems to just skip to the physical end of tape and
then get an error.
