Lines: 15 We are running 3.3.1 and I am having trouble with a program that writes ANSI labels on tapes. I am fairly certain that I used this program on 3.2 but it was never used extensively because of the bug that caused exabyte drives to rewind when used by tar or bru. Now when I try to write an 80 character label on the tape I get the error: EINVAL - attempt to write to a stream linked below a multiplexor. What does this mean?
