AFAIK the taper in slink has been segfaulting on quite a few people. I THINK the taper from potato will work without problems under slink, but I'm not sure. I know that taper WAS working for me around march of this year. BTW, I was using taper to write LS-120 disks and syquest carts. Haven't used floppy tapes for years now, and taper's likely updated in potato since I used it, so YMMV. But I'm pretty sure it's an issue with the taper you're using.
