Back # mt -f /dev/st0 status SCSI 2 tape drive: File number=0, block number=0, partition=0. Tape block size 1024 bytes. Density code 0x80 (DLT 15GB uncomp. or Ecrix). Soft error count since last status=0 General status bits on (41010000): BOT ONLINE IM_REP_EN
Hmmmm. It's a DLT but your blocksize is being reported as a 1024. It might possibly need to be set to 0 first. Try:
mt -f /dev/st0 setblk 0
Then write a small amount of data to the tape:
tar cvf /dev/st0 /etc/hosts
Then try that dump command.
