In addition, I have an RM03 drive on a separate controller. My goal is to use the RM03 as a removable-medium device. My problem is that when I spin down the RM, put in a new pack, then spin it up again, I can't even "dd" a block to /dev/null. It says "read error". A reboot clears the problem. Can anybody tell me how to make the RM useable short of a reboot? Thanks! -- Jeff Percival ...!uwvax!uwmacc!jwp
