Hi,
I upgraded our Redhat 8 NW 7.1.3 server to Redhat Enterprise 3. I tried to
do a bootstrap recovery, but it fails:
Please insert the volume on which save set id 4188026194 started
into /dev/nst0. When you have done this, press <RETURN>:

Kernel is self-built 2.4.32 (just like on the old system, the Redhat kernels
are unusable on this Dell system). I also set
NSR_DEV_TAPE_FILE_SIZE_LTO_ULTRIUM to 131072.
Any ideas?
