Hi,
I'm trying to use
cygwin1 with tape/tar support with a SCSI Quantum DLT tape drive running under
NT 4.0.
tar tvf
/dev/rmt0
will list
the contents of the tape (a tar archive), but when I try to extract or list
specific file names, as in
tar xvf /dev/rmt0
file1.bz2
tar tvf /dev/rmt0
file1.bz2
for files that are
on the tape, the tape just reads to eot and then rewinds.
output of mount
is:
Device
Directory
Type
Flags
tape0
tape
native
text!=binary
Tape0
/tape0
native
text!=binary
tape0
/mnt/tape
native text!=binary
\\.\tape0
/dev/rmt0
native
text=binary
d:
/d
native
text!=binary
c:
/c
native
text!=binary
C:
/
native text!=binary
Any ideas as to what
I can do to get the files off this tape?
Thanks.
Adam
