I am getting ready to add a 8mm to my system and am trying to figure out
the correct lines for the kernel. I already have a SUN quic-150 tape
on the system, and there is a entry in the kernel
tape st0 at sm0 drive 32 flags 1
So if I had to guess I'd say that I could add a line like
tape st1 at sm0 drive xx flags 1
My question is what is xx supposed to be. According to the manual on
reconfiguring the kernel;
csr, drive, flags, priority, and vector arguments are described
in Advanced Administration Topics, because you need to supply
values for them only if you are going to configure your own device
drivers.
YUCK !!! I don't think I need a device driver just to add a 8mm DO I ?????
Please respond directly to me. If this has been covered before, please
forgive me as I am a new administrator and a new user.
OH by the way I am running 4.0.3 and my current configuration is
Sun Sparcserver 330
2 - 327 mb disk
1 - quic-150 tape
I will be adding
1GB disk and 8mm tape - The disk I figured out but not the tape.
Thanks for any and all help .
