Hi!
I have a SCSI DAT streamer as /dev/st0
I can use tar, but how can I rewind or erase the tape?
I found the hint to 'mt' on google, but this doesn't work. |

| 'mt' is the normal way to do this. Have you emerged it? (app-arch/mt-st). |

| Sure! I've had the same issues sometimes in trying to find gentoo ports. I still haven't found nslookup, but i know it's got to be in there somewhere! :-) |

It's in net-dns/bind-tools. That one took me a while to find too.
