I have placed sa0 into my kernel, and now when I go to use a command like "mt -f /dev/rsa0 fsf -1" I get an error that my device is not configured. I am sure that there is a simple step that I am missing, but I am missing it none the less. If anyone has an opinion of what steps to take next, please share. Thanx in advance. >From: Kent Stewart <kstewart@3-cities.com> >To: Tremayne Smith <tmane333@hotmail.com> >CC: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG >Subject: Re: Tape Backup >Date: Thu, 20 Apr 2000 13:23:20 -0700 > > > >Tremayne Smith wrote: > > > > Can anyone offer any advice as to how to install a HP Sure Store Dat >tape > > drive, on a box running freeBSD 4.0.
