I have done a clean install of Fedora 7. I am not able to access the ide tape drive. The following is logged to /var/log/messages while booting:

When trying to access the tape drive the following error appears in the terminal:

/dev/nst0: Input/output error

With the following logged in /var/log/messages:

Jun 6 17:01:59 itox kernel: st0: Error 40000 (sugg. bt 0x0, driver bt 0x0, host bt 0x4).

The same result is obtained with or without selinux enabled.

What needs to be done to get this tape drive working? It has worked fine with all previous versions of Fedora Core.


Let me re-phase the question.

Has anyone been able to get an IDE tape drive to work with Fedora 7 ?
