The tape drive is capable of writing 2GB to tape. I'm trying to 'dump' a filesystem to tape which is far less that 2GB but, 'dump' seems to think I don't have enough tape. Is there some configuration file that I should edit and add the WangDATS parameters too for 'dump'. I'd appreciate any pointers, I'm running FreeBSD 2.1.6. regards -- John Rushford wjjr@sapphire.alisa.org -- John Rushford wjjr@sapphire.alisa.org
