Hi

after adding a tape drive (TLZ07 internal mount) to a new Alpha 200 4/233
 SCSI ID set to 5,
>>> show device finds the drive,
 MAKEDEV tz5,
 including device tape tz5 at scsi0 drive 40
 in the system configuration file and a doconfig -c MACHINENAME
 reboot (startup reports the drive)

any access attempt like
>mt status returns
/dev/nrmt0h: Device busy

What did I forget? Thank for any hints.
