Sorry about the repost, but I have not seen this e-mail return to me, or seen any others from the list for about 4 days now. I would appreciate if anyone has any ideas on my problem (below). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I am running RH6.2 on a Compaq Deskpro PIII/600 with 128MB Ram and U/W scsi disk (connected to a DAC960 controller). I have no problems with the disks, and performance is great. My problems occur when trying to restore data from an Seagate AIT tape drive (25/50). The drive is connected to an Adaptec 29160N scsi controller. Linux is using the AIC7xxxx driver for this device. Using cpio -i , I get an error messages such as: "cpio skipped xxxx blocks of junk". Also, tar gives me similar errors. I have also tried dump and taper with similar results. I have tried cleaning the drive, different tape cartridges etc. Does anyone have nay ideas on this?
