I just finally stuck this in my server with which to hook up a
tape
drive. Kudzu detected it at boot up, but I don't see my tape drive
when
I go cdrecord -scanbus. I guess I need to load a module for that,
but
I'm not sure which one. And how do I make the load permanent now?
Thanks.

Do a
dmesg | grep st
at the command prompt.
If its really a tape drive you will see an output line that tells
you about /dev/stx with x being a number. At that point the system
with have seen the tape drive.
Our server shows these 2 lines among others:
st: Version 20030406, bufsize 32768, max init. bufs 4, s/g segs 16
st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes.
This tells me that the tape drive is /dev/st0
We have a SCSI CDROM and a Quantum DLT4000 on the SCSI bus.
The whole readout of SCSI devices in dmesg looks like this:
scsi0 : sym53c8xx-1.7.3c-20010512
blk: queue c3e41218, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)
Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: CD-ROM PX-40TS Rev: 1.12
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision:
02
blk: queue c3e41018, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)
Vendor: Quantum Model: DLT4000 Rev: D782
Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision:
02
blk: queue f7fb3e18, I/O limit 4095Mb (mask 0xffffffff)
Snipped....
st: Version 20030406, bufsize 32768, max init. bufs 4, s/g segs 16
Attached scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 5, lun 0
Snipped.....
sym53c875-0-<5,*>: FAST-10 SCSI 10.0 MB/s (100.0 ns, offset 15)
st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes.
Hope this helps....
Did not know you could use cdrecord with a tape drive....
After this use tar to read and right tapes.
