-----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Thom Paine Sent: Wednesday, August 18, 2004 2:49 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Adaptec 29160 SCSI Card I just finally stuck this in my server with which to hook up a tape drive. Kudzu detected it at boot up, but I don't see my tape drive when I go cdrecord -scanbus. I guess I need to load a module for that, but I'm not sure which one. And how do I make the load permanent now? Thanks. -=/>Thom Do a dmesg | grep st at the command prompt. If its really a tape drive you will see an output line that tells you about /dev/stx with x being a number. At that point the system with have seen the tape drive. Our server shows these 2 lines among others: st: Version 20030406, bufsize 32768, max init. bufs 4, s/g segs 16 st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes. This tells me that the tape drive is /dev/st0 We have a SCSI CDROM and a Quantum DLT4000 on the SCSI bus. The whole readout of SCSI devices in dmesg looks like this: scsi0 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512 blk: queue c3e41218, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff) Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: CD-ROM PX-40TS Rev: 1.12 Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 02 blk: queue c3e41018, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff) Vendor: Quantum Model: DLT4000 Rev: D782 Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 blk: queue f7fb3e18, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff) Snipped.... st: Version 20030406, bufsize 32768, max init. bufs 4, s/g segs 16 Attached scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 5, lun 0 Snipped..... sym53c875-0-<5,*>: FAST-10 SCSI 10.0 MB/s (100.0 ns, offset 15) st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes. Hope this helps.... Did not know you could use cdrecord with a tape drive.... After this use tar to read and right tapes.
