Thanks for the help Logan. I carried out your suggestions as follows:
Cmd: dmesg > /home/jmc/file1
Cmd: grep tape /home/jmc/file1
The command returned nothing
Cmd: insmod st
Returned: Using /lib/modules/2.4.7-10smp/kernel/drivers/scsi/st.o
insmod: a module named st already exists
Cmd: find /etc |cpio -ov >/dev/st0
Returned: No such device
Cmd: find /dev/st0
Returned a device
Cmd: mt -f /dev/st0 status
Returned: No such device
Any more ideas?
Thanks
