Regarding your advice .

I would not shout at you, you are way too nice of a human being.
I like to capitalize because I cannot underline (or don't know how)
using Netscape on Linux.
Okay, I will try these things, but I'm sure I did all this before. Then

Subject: re: Tape Unit in Linux Box
I use the Seagate Travan units. They are SCSI, so you should have SCSI
support in your kernel. The devices start at st0 (scsi tape zero).
Check to see if the device exists in /dev.
I have 4 of these in one

As far as I know, there is no "special drivers"
Hi,
We use HP 4 mm DDS SCSI tape drives in our Linux machines. The tape
drives didn't come with the units. We recompiled the kernels with SCSI
tape support to enable the drives. I'm not familiar with your tape
drive, but I suspect you can recompile your kernel for tape drive
support. Good luc
I need some basic information about tape units in the Linux
environment. I understood - perhaps incorrectly - that TAR would work
with any tape unit as long as the tape unit was properly designated in
the system. This was according to the builder of the Linux Box.
