I think MAKEDEV isn't prepared yet, to use the super scsi device.
The scsi man page says,
The -p option can be used against the "super scsi" device /dev/scsi/super
to probe all devices with a given SCSI lun on a given SCSI bus. The bus
can be selected with the -b option and the default is 0. The lun can be
selected with the -l option and the default is 0. See scsi(4) for a de-
scription of the "super scsi" device.
So it should be possible for me, to re-probe for a tape device
after reboot, if I forgot to power on the tape.
But what devices are all needed for this super scsi feature.
Only /dev/scsi/super ? Which major minor numbers ?
Thanks for any advice. BTW, this should definitively go into 2.2,
if MAKEDEV would be fixed ...
