Hi together , I've an (very) old SCSI streamer and a bundle of QIC 24 tapes and forgotten how to get it running with *nix I've never thought that I must get some data out of them =:(
it has to run with an AHA1542. the system recognized the SCSI Controller as seen at /proc/scsi/aha1542 total 0 dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 9 23:15 . dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Mar 9 23:12 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Mar 9 23:17 0 with "less 0 " I get The driver does not yet support the proc-fs the device is recognized at /proc/scsi/scsi with "less scsi" I get Attached devices: Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 04 Lun: 00 Vendor: Model: Rev: Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 01 thats that . now I tried to test it with tar -cf /dev/nst0 <directory> tar -cf /dev/nst1 <directory> these are the only 2 (n)st* devices I found at /dev/ It's the same for taking the no or the rewind device: the Error msg is always the same : tar : /dev/nst0: Cannot open: Read-only file system now my questions: st0 and st1 defines tapes jumpered as device ID 0 and 1 ? what about the LUN ? do I have to create a device for the scsi ID 4? ( It's an very old device with an external EMULEX SCSI Controller only for the Wangtek streamer itself) if so, how is it done? How can I touch this damn drive ? Any idea / help is welcome Bye Peter Tel: +49 (30) 742 61 10 Fax: +49 (30) 743 750 02 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #: 55400701
