what happened to my tape drive?

Post by ToddAndMargo » 2007/04/15 03:03:37

HI All,

I just did a clean install on Cent OS 5. I have an
Adaptec 16160 scsi card and an Exabyte VXA3 tape
drive. At BIOS boot, the tape drive probes at position 11.

But, proc only gives me the following:

cat /proc/scsi/scsi
Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 01 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: MegaRAID Model: LD 0 RAID1 476G Rev: 814B
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi2 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: PLEXTOR Model: DVDR PX-755A Rev: 1.05
Type: CD-ROM ANSI SCSI revision: 05

No tape drive.

"cat /proc/scsi/aic7xxx/1" give me a ton if info (but does not
show the tape drive on 11, but I am not sure it is suppose to).

What am I doing wrong?

Many thanks,
-T
