Do a

#modprobe ide-scsi

And see if that loads the kernel module.

Hi,
I've been using amanda for some years, but have just moved from Mandriva to
Debian Etch.

I have a Seagate STT-20000 IDE Travan tape, which is identified as nht0. MT
and dd correctly address this device, and I can read an Amanda tape using
dd.

However, amcheck insists that:
tapedev /dev/nht0 is offline or has no loaded tape.
tape_rdlabel: tape open: /dev/nht0: No such file or directory
       (expecting tape SysDumps-04 or a new tape)

So clearly I've misconfigured something. I seem to have a vague memory of
putting "hdb=ide-scsi" in my kernel command line, and using nst0 but can
find no reference to that.

Has anyone got any suggestions please?
Cheers, Tony
