Yup... I have it built directly in. If I cat /proc/scsi/sg/device_strs I get: webby:/proc/scsi/sg# cat device_strs ARCHIVE Python 00095-001 5.45 which is the tape drive. I also noticed that I don't have any /dev/sg* devices. I have st's, sr's, nst's, sd's, etc., but no sg's. > What does 'mt -f /dev/st0 status' reveal? webby:/proc/scsi/sg# mt -f /dev/st0 status mt: /dev/st0: No such device The same for all of the other st devices.
