Hi,
/dev/sga for the changer should be ok, but for the tapedevice you
have to use the no-rewinding-tapedevice /dev/nst0 not the generic
device /dev/sgb, even if it shows up in the bootprocess as tape and
as generic device. They have completly different sets of ioctl's an
are not compatible for the software using them.
hope it helps.
