RedHat 7.1 HP Travan Tape doesn't work
I have a working RedHat 7.0 installation with a 4GB HP IDE Tape drive using tar for backups. I have upgraded to 7.1 and cannot get tar to read the drive (/dev/ht0). mt works okay ie: mt -f /dev/ht0 rewind. What has changed in RH7.1 ? Is there a setting for tar with the drive that wasn't needed...- spilgrim
