I am having a similiar problem with a HP T4000 tape drive on FreeBSD 
2.1.7.  My kernel shows...

(ahc0:1:0): "HP T4000s 1.07" type 1 removable SCSI 2
st0(ahc0:1:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x0,  drive empty     

but when I try to access the tape drive with a tape in it, it I get 
either error messages, or nothing and it doesn't appear to work.  But 
since I am a total novice at FreeBSD, then I am probably doing it wrong.  
I am using the command...

tar -cvpPf /dev/st0

is this right?
