Since upgrading from 2.4.3 to the 2.4.9 prerelease kernels, long tape
writes fail after 1-2 GB on a 20 GB native tape with "Bad file

tapedrive is working fine. When I get caught up on my backups and have
some time to play with it, I'll send some more info. I'm just hoping
that someone may have heard of a problem like this and know what causes
it.
I have no problems writing more then 30GB on a Ultrium LTO drive. Something
must have broken. Have you tried tar or just filling with zero's ?

Every program has two purposes one for which
it was written and another for which it wasn't
I use the last kind.
