[aclug-L] How to mount a tape drive?

[Kong Wo <tkwo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
    I have a SCSI tape drive which is detected on /dev/st0. What I like
to do is try to mount the tape drive to /root/tape directory.
I tried to mount it so many times using #mount -t ext2 /dev/st0
/root/tape, however; is was unsucessfully. I like to know what is the
magic string which allow me to mount the tape drive since I like to back
up my whole system. Thank for any helps. Currently, I am using RedHat
6.0.
