Well this doesn't look good (.  Unfortunately as I already posted I didn't
have any problem,
so from a working system I did a 'dmesg | grep -i st0  and saw this on my
machine:

Attached scsi tape st0 at scsi1, channel 0, id 4, lun 0
st0 block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes

Note that I have the tape device scsi target address at 4.

from more'ing the /proc/scsi/scsi file I have:
Host:scsi0 Channel:00 Id:00 Lun:00
  Vender: FUJITSU Model: MAG... (hard drive stuff)
Host:scsi1 Channel:00 Id:04 Lun:00
  Vender: ARCHIVE Model: Python 04106-XXX Rev:743B
  Type: Sequential Access   ANSI SCSI revision: 02
I use a aic7xxx series scsi controller, under the /proc/scsi/aic7xxx there
are a 0 and 1 files. Now I'm >assuming< these are the two controllers on the
card (external bus and internal scsi bus).  In each file they have
statistics for each device that is on the bus located at the bottom.  (see
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt for a good example of this
output).

from 'lsmod' I find the necesary modules:
st
aic7xxx
sd_mod
scsi_mod

st being the module for the scsi tape.  This may not apply to you if you
compiled this into the kernel (I did not).  If I do a ls -l on /dev/st0 I
get:
crw-rw---- 1 root disk  9, 0 Mar 23 2001 /dev/st0
note the major and minor number (9, 0).

Just some output for you to compare.  Other docs: man st,
/usr/share/doc/HOWTO/SCSI*, and
/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/README.st.  Hope this helps more than the first
post.  I assume you have target 4 and your scsi bus is properly terminated
).
Good luck!

If I do a mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind if get an Input/output error.  I did a
more of /dev/st0 and got this error

 st0: Error 26030000 (sugg, bt 0x20, driver bt 0x6, host bt 0x3).

Has anybody seen this before?  I researched online and found similar
error messages but no solution.

Thanks for your help,
Chris

One suggestion is to try "mt" to see if the drive can be
accessed.   Generally speaking the first tape drive will be /dev/st0 and
sometimes you'll find a symbolic link from /dev/st0 to /dev/tape.
