Using the mt command also shows an error: sudo mt -f /dev/sg2 rewind mt: /dev/sg2: rmtioctl failed: Operation not permitted
But, using the same command on /dev/st0 shows no error: sudo mt -f /dev/st0 rewind
The eject command (after inserting an unformatted empty tape into the tapedrive) sudo mt -f /dev/sg2 eject mt: /dev/sg2: rmtioctl failed: Operation not permitted
sudo mt -f /dev/st0 eject mt: /dev/st0: rmtioctl failed: Input/output error
Please help~

Describe the bug I compiled and installed the release version of 2.4.5.0 of ltfs on Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS into a custom directory by specifying --prefix to ./configure. I didn't install to the system folders because previously I might have broken the system doing so (though the exact reason is not yet determined, during boot up ubuntu tries to look for the /boot drive and failed to mount after time out. We checked the uuid of the boot drive in /etc/fstab and they are all correct. This happened twice before and we had to reinstall the system, but not sure if it is related to ltfs).
Anyways, now the system is able to detect our Dell LTO-9 tape drive. As shown by : lsscsi -g [0:0:31:0] enclosu CHENBRO 380-23710-3001 1210 - /dev/sg0 [0:2:0:0] disk AVAGO MR9361-8i 4.68 /dev/sda /dev/sg1 [1:0:0:0] disk ATA INTEL SSDSC2KB24 0132 /dev/sdb /dev/sg3 [7:0:8:0] tape IBM ULTRIUM-HH9 N9B1 /dev/st0 /dev/sg2
