Heyyo,

I'm a bit new to the unix tape operations, so this may be trivial (just
not for me).

Dec 22 21:05:41 grind /netbsd: esp0 targ 6 lun 0: <EXABYTE, EXB-4200c, 217> SCSI2 1/sequential removable
Dec 22 21:05:41 grind /netbsd: st0 at scsibus0: drive empty

(so far, so good)

(r) grind# mt rewind
(r) grind# mt erase
mt: /dev/rst0: erase: Invalid argument
(r) grind# mt status
7: unknown tape drive type
(r) grind# eject /dev/rst0

Lots of noise from the tape drive (retension-sounding action), and then
nothing.

Is there something broken, something missing, or something unsupported?

Thanks.
