- Well, It's time to ask the net, since I haven't been able to figure it
- out myself.
-
- We have a Sun clone (Hyundai) running vmunix 4.1.2. We have been
- trying to hook a DAT tape drive to the system, and while it is
- recognized at bootup, subsequent attempts to access it result in
- messages implying that it's off line or the tape is not loaded.
-
- When it boots, we see:
-
- st0 at esp0 target 4 lun 0
- st0: <Vendor 'HP ' Product 'HP35450A -A'>
-
- but when we try to talk with mt(1), we see: (there is no device file st0)
-
- / # mt -f /dev/rst0 status
- /dev/rst0: no tape loaded or drive offline
- / #
-
- And our kernel configuration file contains:
-
- scsibus0 at esp # declare first scsi bus
- disk sd0 at scsibus0 target 3 lun 0 # first hard SCSI disk
- disk sd1 at scsibus0 target 1 lun 0 # second hard SCSI disk
- disk sd2 at scsibus0 target 2 lun 0 # third hard SCSI disk
- disk sd3 at scsibus0 target 0 lun 0 # fourth hard SCSI disk
- tape st0 at scsibus0 target 4 lun 0 # first SCSI tape
- tape st1 at scsibus0 target 5 lun 0 # second SCSI tape
- disk sr0 at scsibus0 target 6 lun 0 # CD-ROM device
-
- Anyone wanna tackle this one??
