- Hi. there,
- I tried to append files to tape. I first did:
- mt feom
- then followed by
- tar cv myfiles
- What happened was that the screen output looked like files were
- tar'd to tape normally. But when I did
- tar tv
- I found out that no new files attempted to append was archieved and
- old files were still in there. I use SILICON GRAPHICS Iris-4D. Any help
- is appreciated. Please reply to this account or to
- zeng@bcl1.xtal.pitt.edu because I don't read this news group often.
