Hi,

Does Amanda use the tapedev defined in amanda.conf or the tapedev
returned by the changer?

If Amanda uses the tapedev returned by the changer, I think that
chg-disk could be rewritten to avoid using symlinks, returning the
directory of the slot each time, and so could work with file systems
that does not implement symlinks (NTFS/FAT32 USB disks).

Best regards,

Olivier
