Other ideas? We're actually on the right track Jody!HHmm. In that case /dev/st0 or /dev/nst0 should be correct in my opinion.
Have a look at /var/log/dmesg and make sure the SCSI adapter is being correctly identified/loaded and that the tape drive attached to that is seen.
Doesn't look like it's seeing it at all. I know the drive works. I've had it setup as a windows box for two years, and it worked fine. Bios sees it ok. Redhat doesn't see it at all.
Any other ideas?
If Linux doesn't see the SCSI adapter - then it won't see the tape drive. Very simple.
We need to load the correct modules to 'see' the SCSI adapter. Just like loading a driver in Windows.
Do you have kudzu running? If not then type 'kudzu' at the command prompt (pretty sure you have to be root), and see whether that detects the adapter.
If not , I'm afraid you're going to have to find out what the make/model of your SCSI Adapter is. After you've done that, have a look at:
/lib/modules/<your kernel version>/kernel/drivers/scsi
You will see heaps of SCSI modules listed. Pick the one that matches your hardware and try doing a:
'modprobe <module name without the .o>'
Let me know what the output of that is once you've done it.
