I am attempting to use AMANDA to write to Disk instead of Tape.

I have followed the directions in the archives to the best of my ability...
but I'm still running into an error.

I try to use amlabel (/usr/sbin/amlabel -f DailyNAS1 DailyNAS01 slot 1)to
prepare the directories, but I keep getting an error that says "device could
not load slot "current": not a device file."

Very similar error if I omit the slot 1.

If I CD into this dir, I can create/delete files/directories so it's not a
permissions problem (even though the path is a NFS mounted remote NAS.)
