FWIW, this indicates a hardware or medium error. Does this same thing
happen with a different tape (try one right out of the wrapper)?

This shouldn't happen; that number looks like nonesense to me, unless
I'm missing something. Do you have a notion of what command you
issued when you got this?
BTW, what kernel are you running?
As for your question about ftape, it has nothing to do with your tape
drive (I think it was originally for tape drives working off of the
floppy controller, although I'm not sure that this is still
exclusively true).
