Thanks to all who answered my questions on SCSI tapes and devfs.  
Things are a lot more clear now.  I did get my autochanger link working.
 It is formed when a test program (moves tapes, etc.) accesses the
changer.  Now I need to get my tape working properly.

However, I have three scsi cards and the FAQ mentions that I can use
scsishost= to force the order of detection.  Where do I put this
parameter - in the lilo.conf file as an append option?

Also, since the tape drive appears in both /dev/st (devfs namespace0 and
/dev/tapes (kernel namespace) is there any advantage, disadvantage to
making the link to one over the other.

Thank you.
