At SR10.2, there are some SCSI tape device files included in
/dev as part of the standard release. These do work with an
Exabyte, although you may have toset your SCSI unit ID on
your tape drive to match those used by Apollo ... I don't
how their device driver deals with multiple tape drives
(say a SCSI internal cartridge and an external Exabyte).
The SR10.2 release has a /dev/rmts9 and /dev/rmts13 set
of device files in addition to the /dev/rmts8 and /dev/rmts12
files. Maybe the first set are for SCSI unit 1, and the
others are for unit 0?
