yep, some tapes have formatting info hardwritten in them, a degausser would kill them
I've used a multitude of different tape drives over the years, and any drive that required that had the ability to re-write those marks built into the hardware format utility. I had access a commercial degausser and used it many times. Some types of tapes needed reformatting, but the drive did it. -- ----------JSA--------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
