Hi, I've problems getting the HP Colorado 8GB IDE tapestreamer to work. Using ide-tape, i get I/O errors after +/- 5000 blocks writing, reading gives a I/O error too, it doesnt' read any blocks. mt status doesn't work either.
I use the /dev/(n)ht0 devices. Ide-scsi seems to work ok, mt status appears to work, but writing results in a read-only filesystem error... reads are resulting in an I/O error too in ide-scsi mode It's primary slave on an old (486) IDE controller, together with an IDE HD. Some dmesg entries: scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices scsi : 1 host.
