If I try not to use SCSI emulation for all 2.4.x kernels (including:
Kernel 2.4.9-ac5 on i686
then
ide-tape: ht0: I/O error, pc = 8, key = 5, asc = 2c, ascq = 0
tar: /dev/ht0: Cannot read: Input/output error
(writes work OK though)
As mentioned above, scsi emulation works for 2.4.4 (reads and writes). But if
turned on in 2.4.9-ac5, then I get
/dev/st0: No such device
So, with kernels above 2.4.4, I can't use the drive at all (or at least can't
"read" with it which makes it useless).
The ideal situtation (at least for me) would be to have 2.4.x kernels behave
like the 2.2.x ones, that is, scsi emulation would not need to be turned on
for these ide drives (that is, it would be optional) and I would go back to
using /dev/ht0.
