Try an mt -f /dev/nrsa0 status and mt -f /dev/nrsa1 status The ctl node specifically makes no access to the device. If there is indeed a tape inserted, build a CAMDEBUG kernel, boot it, and do camcontrol debug -Ic b:t:l (b = bus, t = target, l = lun) and then do the 'mt status' dance as above and send to scsi@freebsd.org (the appropriate list- not hackers). I'm the tape driver maintainer, but I'll be out of town this next week. > I have set up a tape drive, correctly I believe, yet I keep getting > "device not configured" errors from it.
