HELP HELP,
How can I abort the following command when cpio fails and prompts for input:

find . -print | cpio -ocB > /dev/rct0


That is, if there is insufficent tape, the above cpio command prompts for
the device/filename to continue. If I can send a return it will then abort.
Note, this command runs in a shell script as a cronjob.

Edwin
