Re: tape drive

[Matt Fair <matt@netasol.com>]

I have them all compiled into the kernel. When but when I do a cat 
/proc/scsi/scsi I get Attached devices: none
My /var/log/kern.log has an error when I boot up:
Nov  8 09:21:33 apollo kernel: SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
Nov  8 09:21:33 apollo kernel: request_module[scsi_hostadapter]: Root fs 
not mounted
Nov  8 09:21:33 apollo last message repeated 3 times

What does this mean?
Thanks,
Matt
