Charles:
I would not shout at you, you are way too nice of a human being.
I like to capitalize because I cannot underline (or don't know how)
using Netscape on Linux.
Okay, I will try these things, but I'm sure I did all this before. Then
I will get back to you. Will have to wait till the wife

Subject: re: Tape Unit in Linux Box
I use the Seagate Travan units. They are SCSI, so you should have SCSI
support in your kernel. The devices start at st0 (scsi tape zero).
Check to see if the device exists in /dev.
I have 4 of these in one

I have 4 of these in one machine, so I have st0, st1, st2, st3
As far as I know, there is no "special drivers"
Hi,
We use HP 4 mm DDS SCSI tape drives in our Linux machines. The tape
drives didn't come with the units. We recompiled the kernels with SCSI
tape support to enable the drives. I'm not familiar with your tape
drive, but I suspect you can recompile your kernel for tape drive
support. Good luc
