Hi, my first post!

I have a Dell Powervault 124T and I believe a Certance Tape drive (LTO-2), the 
Server is running Gentoo with Kernel 2.6.29-gentoo-r5 and Bacula 2.4.1-r1.

Below is the latter part of a btape fill single tape, which ends in a MTWEOF 
error, I assume this is something I need to fix up! However I'm not sure what 
to do I have read the documentation and made several config changes. Any help 
greatly appreciated.
