Using the stock SCSI drivers, i get an illegal request when the driver tries to set the density and blocksize of the tape. Since Julian has put some new drivers on freefall.cdrom.com, i updated the drivers, but am still having the same problem. Using the new drivers, i also get cd0: not ready on startup. The old drivers would always recognize my cdrom (a Toshiba XM3401B). The same system also has a HP 45470 DAT tape. I have no problems accessing the HP tape. My configuration: Micronix 486/66 DX2 EISA. 28 Mb RAM. Adaptec AHA-1742B. Maxtor XT-8760S HD. Syquest 88 Mb removable. Wangtek 5525ES REV 1 tape. Hp 45470 REV 1009 tape. Toshiba XM3401B cdrom. I hope somebody can give any clues on what might be causing the problem, Adri Koppes adrik@paramount.nikhefk.nikhef.nl
