Re: Adding a SCSI controller and SCSI Tape drive

You are right, its "st" and it shows up
scsi_transport_spi     25281  1 aic7xxx
scsi_mod              134761  6
sd_mod,usb_storage,st,sg,aic7xxx,scsi_transport_spi


also dmesg shows the following entries:
scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 7.0
        <Adaptec 2940 SCSI adapter>
        aic7870: Single Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 16/253 SCBs

  Vendor: Quantum   Model: DLT4000 CPQ DRV   Rev: D473
  Type:   Sequential-Access                  ANSI SCSI revision: 02
 target0:0:6: Beginning Domain Validation
 target0:0:6: FAST-10 SCSI 10.0 MB/s ST (100 ns, offset 15)
 target0:0:6: Domain Validation skipping write tests
 target0:0:6: Ending Domain Validation

and then further down:


scsi 0:0:6:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 1
st: Version 20050830, fixed bufsize 32768, s/g segs 256
st 0:0:6:0: Attached scsi tape st0
st0: try direct i/o: yes (alignment 512 B)


So the system definitely sees the controller and tape drive, just any IO
to it hangs.  I'm wondering, do I have a good drive?
