You need to have a device driver configured into your kernel that
supports that type of device.  I believe that most of '386 *nix variants
have a driver that knows how to talk to a Western Digital type
drive.  Don't know about a ST02/ST01 interface.

Works fine for me using a GVP Impact2/0 controller on my Amiga 2000.
Not running U*ix (yet), but it *does* multi-task...
