Hi!
mt is command for controlling your streamer, not backing up! It allows
you to do rewind, stop, go to beginning of tape etc...
For backup you could do let's say:
use mt to rewind tape to start
do tar czvf backup.tgz /dev/st0 or whatever is the device fot SCSI
tape...
I suggest you to read the Backup HOWTO or better: Use backup program
like: taper, BRU, Arkeia...
Bye, Alen
