-> Are you sure you have the block size set correctly?
-> I have had problems at times when the tape has been writen on a system
-> that will write blocks other than 512 bytes. 
-> 
-> try "mt -f /dev/st? setblk 0" and then read the tape.

I have a tape recorder connected to an adaptec scsi card (aha 294X) and
when i forget to tell the block size i wrote it gives me garbish, but
gives me something... it never says 0+0 records out.
