Hi

I cant seem to cpio files from a tape written with a Archive 5120s and
read from a Wangtek 5033EN (Using the cpio -o < /dev/ras3a as
suggested in the release notes) Is this some sort of QIC format
problem.

In fact, I cant seem to write and read from the wangtek on my 386,
although if I hook it up to my sparc 2 at work it streams, read,
writes, etc.  great!

Any suggestions?

mike
