I'm using a Sun tape drive. No nomenclature listed, except for "DDS-4" on the front. Didn't get far with a part number search as well.

at the ok prompt, I tried:

show-nets, and didn't see my any scsi listings,

I did a probe-scsi-all

/pci@1f,0/pci@5/pci@2/scsi@2,1

So I interpret that as the adapter is there, but no driver. I grabbed the CD, installed the drivers, and am going to try again.

going to try a boot -r next.
