amlabel: writing label: Read-only file system
It's indeed very weird. Two possibilities:
1. Are you sure you are specifying the correct tapedevice in the amanda
configuration? There is no "file system" on a tape, maybe you
specified "file:..." or something. Investigate with:
amgetconf YourConfig tpchanger
amgetconf YourConfig tapedev
2. Do you have the drive allowed for variable blocksize? (of fixed at
32k is fine too). I've had some problems with reading/writing
tapes with incompatible blocksizes (but never seen "read-only").
Try it out with "dd obs=...". If that one works with blocksize,
it's something else.
