Recently I presented a problem to this forum concerning tar(1) and the
1/4" scsi tape hanging. I received several responses. I solved the problem
by removing the 4.0.1 scsi patch. Many thanks to the readers of this
group for their help.
Here is a synopsis of the replies I received.
----------
1. Remove the scsi patch I put in with 4.0.1. (from various people)
2. Get patch called unix/4.0/st Bug ID is 1012501.

3. If trying to replace an existing file with one from tape,
remove the disc file first (ie rename it or purge it).
(Suggested by denise@hc.dspo.gov)
4. Purge the files in the directory where the kernal is built.
Build a new kernal, letting config(8) put all new copies of
of the files back in the kernal's make directory. This was
Sun's original suggestion to me. Not totally successful.
----------
This group continues to astound me in the helpfulness of its readers.
Perhaps one day I can return the favor.
