However, I appear to have botched something else entirely: my HP SCSI tape drive does not work. It is found (here's some dmesg output): sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 3 lun 0 sa0: Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device sa0: 10.000MB/s transfers (10.000MHz, offset 32) The major and minor numbers are correct (and I did a MAKEDEV). But, if I try to just check on things: $ mt stat mt: /dev/nrsa0: Device not configured Anyone have any ideas? Does this ring any bells? What on earth did I do wrong? I can't imagine that this would matter, but my scsi card is ultra-2, and I have an ultra-2 to wide adapter on it for the tape drive. Thanks a lot. A week of no backups is beginning to wig me out.
