I have Exabyte elite tape drive connected to advansys scsi card. When I do mt -f /dev/st0 it says no such device. First of all it does not detect any scsi of such hardware initially at the time of boot up. But it detected in knoppix 3.6. my debian kernel version is 2.2.20-idepci
This is just something which came to my mind. Take it with a pinch of salt (someone correct me if I'm wrong).
Login using knoppix. Note down the major & minor device no. by doing ls of /dev/st0 (or whatever it shows up as). Login to your regular installation & try doing a mknod (man mknod would help). -- Soumen Dass [Registered Linux User # 272639 - Linux nova 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl i686]
