So I wont be able to add another "tested by" to this thread unless I ca= n find another drive. Even using Doug's method fails to actually update. Seems to suck up the= image and then do nothing. Lands up in getting hung and needs a full power reset. The image I have is the correct image. I dont want to try to many convoluted methods because I dont want to br= ick the changer. Its the only one I have for doing all the st driver testing here at Red= Hat in the GSS team.

Yes probably, it reports "MaxPartitions 0", should be 1 for an LTO-5 drive.
