Onstream SC30e and Redhat 8

[James Pifer <jamesredhatlist tnjinfl com>]

I've searched google and found some hits on using Onstream tape drives
with Linux. All the ones I found were old postings, nothing very new. 

According to Onstream's web site there is now some support for Onstream
drives on Linux with a driver called osst. They even say it might
already be in the kernel. I'm running Redhat 8 with kernel
2.4.18-24.8.0. 

-How can I tell if I already have the osst driver installed? 

-I plan on using an Adaptec AHA-2930U2 SCSI card. Anyone know if there
are issues with this?

-Can anyone recommend a backup software I should start with, assuming I
get the drive working?

Any help is appreciated. 

Thanks,
James
