Can't open tapedev
2008-01-27 13:51:23
Hi,
I've been using amanda for some years, but have just moved from Mandriva to
Debian Etch.
I have a Seagate STT-20000 IDE Travan tape, which is identified as nht0. MT
and dd correctly address this device, and I can read an Amanda tape using
dd.
However, amcheck insists that:
tapedev /dev/nht0 is offline or has no loaded tape.
tape_rdlabel: tape open: /dev/nht0: No such file or directory
(expecting tape SysDumps-04 or a new tape)
So clearly I've misconfigured something. I seem to have a vague memory of
putting "hdb=ide-scsi" in my kernel command line, and using nst0 but can
find no reference to that.
Has anyone got any suggestions please?
Cheers, Tony
