Hiya

I've written a small script that backs up data to a tape, rewinds it, then reads back the data that was stored as a test.

The problem I've run into is that 'mt rewind' is asynchronous, and subsequent tape operations will fail until the rewind operation has finished.

Is there a way to find out when the tape has finished rewinding, or at least to rewind synchronously? The drive is an ATA Seagate STT2401A.

Cheers,
