Okay, I think I understand (some <G>).
I need to use the cdrom entry as a model but change cdrom to tape or
auto_ changer0 - correct.
I've found out that the backup software tries to find an sg device for
the library and then create a symlink to it - which doesn't work under
devfs. I've got the library working by using /dev/sg2 as the device
instead of auto_changer0.
So /etc/devfsd.conf is where we create these links that we want to have
and the copy lines make sure they are persistant??
Suggestion: Find the backup software authors and a
cattle prod or baseball bat... perhaps you can then
convince them that the installation code should not
be munging your system unless you ask it to (or it
at least asks first).
If the install is #! code hack the ln -fs out of it.
