I'm using debian stable, and when my amanda server boots up my tape
drive is detected as /dev/st0 (and /dev/nst0). Do you still have the
old DAT drive connected? Does the scsi interface detect the hardware?
Should be mesages in dmesg.

Betreff: Re: Question: does this DLT Drive work?
I use this in an Overland Data Loaderexpress, and it works fine.
I got the tape type off the amanda.org pages.
In my case the tape library has an interface to enable or disable
compression. If you have a standalone tape drive I'm not sure how you
do it.
this the tape type I'm using :
define tapetype SDLT320 {
comment "SDLT 320 drive in OverLand Storage Neo 2000 Library"
length 154753 mbytes
filemark 28 kbytes
speed 2349 kps
}

Does this drive work good with amanda?
How do i have to set it up in amanda.conf?
How do i activate the compression of the drive to get the full 230GB?
Thanks for the Help!
Regards Sebastian
