It was always the first non-rewind tape on the old UNIX machines (HP, SGI, maybe SUN). So all mt command do a usefull job using the defaults. As tar is often used in pipes, the old SGI way of using /dev/nst0 too is not always good. Lest hope this will go into most distributions :-; -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
