We're seeing a problem when we try to read tape records whose count mod 8 is 7. The last byte is ok, but the previous 6 have been replaced with nulls. Below are od's of records with counts 23 and 31. (The final null is an artifact of od.) We're running 4.1bsd on a 780 with a Kennedy 9300 drive and a Western Peripherals tc-131 controller. Seen it before? Why, you ask do we want to read tape records with count mod 8 equal 7? "Lisp Machine dump tapes" is the answer. Thanks, Ron Stanonik ...!sdcsvax!stanonik stanonik@nprdc 0000000 000 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 010 011 012 013 014 015 016 017 0000020 000 000 000 000 000 000 026 000 0000027 0000000 000 001 002 003 004 005 006 007 010 011 012 013 014 015 016 017 0000020 020 021 022 023 024 025 026 027 000 000 000 000 000 000 036 000 0000037
