Hi Folks,
Thanks for the information, Hardware Browser lists it as /dev/st I have tried to get the status of the drive by issuing:
mt -f /dev/st0 status
and I get:
/dev/st0: No such device or address
Similar for nst0, st1, nst1. Please advise. Any help would be great and much appreciated.
Cheers,
Aly.

How do you all do bare metal backup and restores? Anyone ever get a tape drive recognized while booted in recovery mode? Did you notice the "st" device isn't installed when booted in recovery mode? "Modprobe st" and "mknod /dev/st c 9 0" don't seem to work in recovery mode. I've tried several "restoration" versions of Linux but none seem to work on my Dell 2650 system with Redhat. Tell me I don't have to install the OS to restore the OS. Can you restore / safely while booted on it?

Hello Folks,
I have just put in a scsi card with a Compaq 20/40GB DAT tape drive, what would be the device id or device name for this tape drive ?
If it's a rewinding tape (likely), it should be /dev/st0. If it's non-rewinding (unlikely), it would be /dev/nst0.
