You already found the problem. mtx expects to directly call a kernel API that does not exist on Cygwin. From the mtx FAQ file: Note that mtx 1.2 and above use the SCSI GENERIC interface on Linux, FreeBSD, and Solaris (at least). They do NOT use the tape device node. Please read the man page for directions. This means there is no way this is going to work on Cygwin as there is no such kernel API to call. It would probably work if it used only the tape device node, but it has been coded to specifically not work in that way. Note that there is already a Cygwin-specific "mt" package that you can install through setup.exe that supports the basic tape operations but I don't know if it will support autoloader-specific commands.
