     this problem is already solved?
--------------------------------

By following this link:

     http://www.mandrakeexpert.com/showarchive.php?arc=30224

you will find a decription of an often reported problem
with reading data from HP Colorado/Travan type magnetic
tape drives. this incident is closed however the solution
is not described therein (is this on purpose?). anyway the
last entry is:

==========================
Nickrgv : 30/08 06:35 : More info provided     This worked perfectly. 
Just the lilo.conf and rc.local to edit and everything looks good.

Many thanks, you are indeed an expert!

==========================

this is also my problem. what is the solution?

shane

P.S. two follow on questions:

1. my HP Colorado 20GB is an IDE drive.
    why does mt status report it as SCSI2?
2. i can only write (and read with error)
    to /dev/nht0. if i use /dev/ht0 an
    error is reported as if there's no such
    thing. why?
