See my reply I just sent about writing your own udev rules to give
consistent names to your tape drive(s) using the SCSI Generic device
matched up with the output of:
/lib/udev/scsi_id --whitelisted /dev/sg#
for how I solved this problem on Debian Squeeze.

/dev/tape/by-id/scsi-3500e09e0001af92f-nst -> ../../nst0
For some reason, I could never get this to work consistently on my
