I have a Debian stable machine with all IDE dirves. it also has an Adaptec
AIC-7892 SCSi controler. This controler has one slave device, a HP C1537A
4mm tape changer. It's at SCSI ID 5.
What is it's device name? /dev/??

short... i think the tape drive just might work.
however, i have no clue how to use it. could someone give me a primer?

I am trying to use an IDE tape drive with Debian. The drive is
identified during boot, but I am lost on how to access it.
Under SuSE and RH and as much of the documentation on tape drives
mentions, there
is a /dev/ht0 device for such drives. I see nothing similar in /dev/ on
my Debian box

Hi All
I cannot get my HP Travan T4000S Scsi tape drive to work. I have gathered all
the information I can find about the problem into the rest of this email. Am I
missing something obvious? Thanks in anticipation of any assistance given.

Hi All,
I just aquired a Seagate ATAPI STT8000A tape drive and would like
to make it work on a debian 2.2 system running 2.2.14, (was a 2.1,
haven't gotten around to setting up new kernel).
dmesg shows:
hdd: Seagate STT8000A, ATAPI TAPE drive
and then, at the very end:
I have an Iomega parallel port drive model no. ditto easy 3200. I have
added support into the kernel for parallel port devices, ftape, ztape,
etc.
When I try to write to the tape I receive the following message:
kerr:~# tar cf /dev/qft0 home
tar: /dev/qft0: Cannot open: Device not configured
tar
n provide more details. Thx.

My apologies for the earlier mail (see above). It would seem that when we got
the machine from HP, the SCSI
tape drive power cable was attached but the data cable. SO the problem is now
solved and I am using the
st.o module to load the tape and perform backup. Again
