Re: How to get the tape working - 20/40 dat
Did you se eyour tape drive show up at this stage?
Oh, and the module you need for your tape is 'st' (scsi tape). If the kernel sees a tape attached to your SCSI bus during boot-up, it should automatically insert it anyway.
So steps to fix.. First things first, the SCSI BIOS. Does it see your tape. What ID is it at?
If it does, reboot. If it's not, check cabling, and termination on the tape device.
Check the contents of /proc/scsi/scsi, see if a 'Sequential Access' device is listed there. If it is, then your tape should be working.

Re: How to get the tape working - 20/40 dat
another easy way to check if the device is
seen on the bus is to run cdrecord -scanbus.
Greetings, Martin

Re: How to get the tape working - 20/40 dat
Assuming that your are using the 5i+ or another array controller that uses cciss, put the following script (in a file called compaq_cciss_scsi) in /etc/rc.d/init.d:
for x in /proc/driver/cciss/cciss[0-9]*
do
echo "engage scsi" > $x
done
The echo command will engage the cciss scsi support and the script will keep the setup going across reboots.

Re: How to get the tape working - 20/40 dat
cdrecord : no such file or directory , cannot open ' dev/pg*'. Cannot open SCSI driver.
cdrecord: For possible target try 'cdrecord -scanbus' make sure you are root
cdrecord: for posible transport specifiers try 'cdresord dev=help'
i can't find the file in init.d

Re: How to get the tape working - 20/40 dat
Thus the command 'insmod st' means load the modules name st, while the second line shows the full path to the loaded module...
