Hi.. I urgently need to mount my tape drive as i need to do backup. But after reading from quite a few sources, I am getting more confused. To mount a device, I must first define a mount point, right? For this case, this is what i have define in /etc/fstab (I don't know if this correct) --> /dev/tape /mnt/tape auto rw,auto,user,sync I want the device to mount automatically. Then I use this command --> mount /mnt/tape and it says "mount: special device /dev/tape does not exist" So I continue searching and ooe of the site says must create device entry by doing --> /dev/MAKEDEV So I followed, I did a --> /dev/MAKEDEV tape After this command, the /dev created "tape-d" and "tape-reset". But where is the "tape" that I have asked for? And now I am stucked. =( Someone pls help me. Thanks a lot Celine _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
