Since no one has answered the question yet, I went back to your 
original post to see if I could see anything wrong, and noted a 
couple of things.

1.  You haven't defined a "changerdev /dev/sg1".  I believe you 
should to that.

2. I don't believe you need the "scsitapedev" as a specifier, in 
mine, it is just "dev  /dev/nst0".

And a 3rd item, since the tape is generally a different beastie from 
a cdrom or the changer robot,  I wouldn't think you would want to 
use /dev/sg2 to access the tape drive.  Its probably more like 
/dev/nst0 since its the first tape drive found.  Your snip of 
/proc/scsi/scsi doesn't define this, but your /var/log/dmesg (or 
whatever your last bootlog is called) should show this properly.

One problem I had with your message, no fault of yours, is that it 
came from Princeton.edu, and one of my filter rules *was* putting 
anything from princeton into my "coco" mailbox & I had a heck of a 
time figureing out how amanda stuff was getting into my coco stuff.
The coco mailing list is on a princeton.edu machine.  A coco being 
the TRS-80 Color Computer, one of the stepping stones one can use 
to learn a bit about the *nix's since its OS, OS-9, is a mini unix 
without any great amount to security once you've gotten past the 
password.  The system console is always logged in too.  A great 
machine and a great OS, just not quick enough, or big enough memory 
map, to do everything the newest whizbang machines can do today.
