Hi I am using a backup tape witch at the moment runs under suselinux 7.3. Now I am migrating to openbsd and try to read my data witch are written under linux from a tape that runs under openbsd 3.6.
The problem is: there is only a small part of what I backuped, and during the read-process tar says: "missing header for file XX -search for header" I used the tape before under freeBSD 4.11 (driver: sa0) and never encountered that problem. I suspect that st only rekognises dds3 tapes. If so, what can I do? The tape hardware is hp surestore dat dds4 Configuration under openbsd: |-siop0 | \-scsibus1 | \-st0 (dmassage -t) mt status says: mt -f /dev/st0 status SCSI tape drive, residual=0 ds=3<Mounted> er=0 blocksize: 0 (0, 0, 0, 0) density: 38 (0, 0, 0, 0) thanks in advance, Erwin -- Lust, ein paar Euro nebenbei zu verdienen?
