Is Linux compatible with SCSI tape drives? If so, can you give some setup/install advice?

Yes, well probably yes. What distro are you wanting to install/setup these tape drives in. We need specifics, are you using BSD, Red Hat / Cent OS, Ubuntu, etc. The commands very from distro to distro.

The latest Ubuntu 64 bit.
