Can't use tape drive (no /dev/st0)



Hello buddies,

I've purchased PV110 tape drive and Poweredge 2970 with RHEL v4 pre-
installed.
However, I can't use the tape drive.

When booting the machine, it shows that PV110 has been attached.

But I can't use the tape drive because there is no /dev/st0 device
file.

# mt -f /dev/st0 status
/dev/st0: No such file or directory


This is some related machine information:

-------------aic7xxx driver loaded--------------

Morever, running kudzu but no new device detected. How can I use the
tape drive? Thanks!
