I am using a Sun-4/370 with an internal 1/4" tape 150Meg tape drive.  I am
trying to figure out which the numbers after the /dev/rst mean.  (e.g.
/dev/rst0 /dev/rst8 etc...) can any one tell me what they mean or tell me
where in the manual set I can find them. I have looked for them ang have
not been successful.
