$ ls -l /dev/st0* crw-rw-rw- 1 root tape 9, 0 2004-09-18 07:51 /dev/st0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root tape 9, 96 2004-09-18 07:51 /dev/st0a crw-rw-rw- 1 root tape 9, 32 2004-09-18 07:51 /dev/st0l crw-rw-rw- 1 root tape 9, 64 2004-09-18 07:51 /dev/st0m
What differentiates st0 from a,l,m? What does writing or reading to a tape using a,l,m signify?
I cannot seem to find any documentation clearly stating this.
