tape drive writing and kernel errors
Hi,
I'm running debian Etch on a no name server with a Quantum DLT-v4 SATA
drive. All my backups on tape are failing with kernel errors (see
below). The tape is fresh, so it isn't a bad medium I guess.
After googling I tried appending "irqpoll acpi=noirq", but that didn't
make any difference.
Any suggestions?
