Hi!
My setup is like this:
OS: Fedora Core 2
Kernel: 2.6.5
Amanda ver.: Amanda-2.4.4p2
Tape drive: HP DAT 72i
SCSI adapter: Adaptec 29160B Ultra160


When I want to label my tapes Amanda gives me this error:
bash-2.05b$ amlabel DagligRotation Band-02
rewinding
amlabel: tape_rewind: rewinding tape: /dev/null: Inappropriate ioctl for device


In amanda.conf I have defined a tapetype based  on:
bash-2.05b$ amtapetype -e 35G -f /dev/tape
define tapetype unknown-tapetype {
    comment "just produced by tapetype prog (hardware compression on)"
    length 30103 mbytes
    filemark 0 kbytes
    speed 2550 kps
}


What is wrong?
