[nflug] hardware question

Hello All,
 I have a hardware question. I recently purchased a scsi IOmega REV
drive. Have it installed in Ubuntu Edgy. The drive has cartridges that
hold 35GB natively! I didn't make any fstab entries for it, it just came
up as /dev/cdrom-1, all was good. However, when doing my backups to it,
I noticed that the tar files being cron'd to it were stopping at 1GB. I
poked around in /proc/scsi and seen that the drive does get detected as
a cdrom, don't know if this is a problem or can be changed. So, instead
of just created my tar jobs to split the files, I was wondering if this
behavior/detection can be changed via /etc/fstab. Any Ideas? TIA
