[SunHELP] Adding DLT8000 to E3500

[Jon]

Joe,

Do a probe-scsi-all from the 'ok' prompt. From my experience tape drives
show up on ID 4 (and is the usual practice). Once the new drive is hooked
up you *might* have to do a 'boot -r'. The device should be under
/dev/rmt/* (* meaning there is more than one device type you can pick
from)
