[ale] device name for SCSI DLT

[Chris Fowler]

What would be the proper line in /etc/conf.modules to allow the drive to be loaded each time /dev/st0 is accessed?


Thanks,
Chris

Actually, I only thought I did.  That loud impact you just heard off in the
distance?  That was me smacking myself in the forehead.  Don't worry, it's
only a mild concussion.  I'll be fine.


I guess I'm just surprised it reported the thing at all at startup if I
didn't have the code to use it in the kernel.  But I suppose the detection
and reporting is done in the core scsi code, and doesn't do anything toward
actually using the device.


Ok.  I'm learning.  Thanks, all!
