Hi,

I just upgraded from kernel 2.2.17 to 2.4.4. I use a Seagate ATAPI tape drive,
model STT20000A. I use dump to do backups (probably not relevant).

In version 2.2.17 kernel, backups worked fine. In 2.4.4, I get the following
error message:

ide-tape: bh == NULL in idetape_copy_stage_to_user.

Anyone know what causes this problem?

Please reply directly, as I'm not a member of this list.

Thanks :-)
