Description Dylan Carlson 2001-10-16 21:20:00 UTC

Kernel detects Sony AIT tape changer correctly at boot-time, but 'mt' and 'tapetype' (amanda) do not work with it.  I have confirmed the device to work in Solaris and NT.

I think I'm just missing something obvious.

See various outputs below.

How-To-Repeat: 1. Install a basic full distribution of 4.4-RELEASE on a Compaq 1600R 6/500 system with the integrated SCSI2 adapter, with the Sony A300C AIT1 changer attached.

2. mt -f /dev/sa0 status

Looks like you're missing the ch device in your kernel config file. 

Put: 

device		ch 

in your config file, re-run config, recompile, reinstall and reboot.  You 
should then be able to access the changer with chio(1) to move tapes around. 

Let me know if that fixes it (CC your reply to 
FreeBSD-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org) so this PR can be closed.

Submitter says his problem is fixed by adding the ch driver to his kernel 
config.
