getting ftape/zftape module to load automatically



Where should I look for documentation on what I need to set up
to get the ftape and/or zftape modules to load automatically
when I try to access /dev/ftape (/dev/*qrt0; major 27, minor ...)?

Do I need to add some alias to /etc/modules.conf or 
/etc/modules/aliases?


Also, is this behavior correct:

Loading or unloading module ftape doesn't seem to affect 
what's listed in /proc/devices.

It's only when I load module zftape that character device
#27 shows up (matching the major device number of /dev/qrt0).


Thanks,


Daniel
