It shows a 2 GB Quantum on ID 0, a TEAC CD-ROM drive on ID 3, and an IBM 4 GB drive on ID 6. No tape. > sd0(ahc0:1:0): Direct-Access 2014MB (4124736 512 byte sectors) > > this looks like the tape unit to me, but in /dev/???? I don't see that > it is > configured? No, this is your first SCSI disk (/dev/sd0*). Look at the beginning of the line. So why isn't the tape drive being found? This is typically a cabling problem, or possibly you have the ID set incorrectly. Possibly, also, you have another device which is conflicting with it, in which case both of them won't show. > Oh, I appreciate your help, sorry I haven't mentioned this before! You're welcome.
