FWIW, the Solaris 10 version of _mt_ is transportable. I've copied it
to Solaris 9 machines and it works. The extra info from 'config' is
really nice.

No, I meant config. It must be new with Solaris 10:
config Reads the drives
current configura-
tion from the driver
and displays it in
st.conf format. See
st(7D) for defini-
tion of fields and
there meanings.

Probably best. Did you at least install from a Solaris 9 CD/DVD that
includes the latest roll-up? It appears from sunsolve.sun.com that you
want at least:
113277-60 SunOS 5.9: st, sd and ssd drivers patch
