I have installed a new DAT drive. The systems detected it as the Archive Python and is it recognized at "st0". What exactly is the "st0" I can not find it in my /dev directory. What command do I need to do to access this drive? I have tried "mt -f /dev/st0ctl.0 status" and that is the only thing that works. I can't seem to get the "mt" command to rewind or erase the drive. Can you help my to identify the correct device to talk with the drive? Thanks! Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
