mt-st
Linux SCSI tape driver aware magnetic tape control (aka mt)
Mt-st contains a version of "mt" that is aware of Linux's SCSI tape driver. Mt-st is able to set some esoteric control flags like tape partitions. Mt-st provides an alternative to the GNU version of mt, in the cpio package. It also comes with stinit, a program to be run at boot time to set up tape defaults.
