Has anyone successfully installed a Seagate STT220000A-RDT Travan 5 tape drive under RH 7.3 and gotten it to backup???  If so, what device name does it go by?  I have one installed as the slave device on IDE2.  Linux seems to see it fine, because there are 53 status messages in the 'dmesg' log that properly describe just about everything about the drive (ie, model, capacity firmware version, buffer sizes, etc) but nowhere can I find a device name.  I have tried st0, ftape, hdd, ht0 and they all fail with 'no such device'.  I just want to do a simple 'tar' backup, but I need to know the device name.  Can anyone help???
 
Thanks,
bdavis
