Milan,
    What driver are you using for the SCSI tape (or should I say 'Handler')?
I am using Bob Rethemeyers BTN (Better Than Nothing) tape driver software
with a 3M 40 Meg tape drive and tar.  BRU gives a 'mount' message, as does
'type' and many other DOS commands.  'tar', however, works great!  I have
also had good results with 'pax'.  If your controller is a 2091, 2090A,
or Supra you might try this driver.
