Using 2.5.0p1 I can't restore any files from holding disk.  The
amindexd debug file says:

amindexd: > TAPE
amindexd: tapedev_is amrecover_changer: /dev/changer
amindexd: < 200 /dev/changer
amindexd: ? unexpected EOF

which is odd because it's not even supposed to be using the tape
drive.  Here's the amrecover session:

amrecover> add ftpusers
Added /opt/sfw/etc/ftpusers
amrecover> extract

Extracting files from holding disk on host whimsy.
The following files are needed: 
/home1/dumps/amanda/20060501190001/ambiance.med.utah.edu.sdc1.0

Restoring files into directory /tmp

Extracting from file  
/home1/dumps/amanda/20060501190001/ambiance.med.utah.edu.sdc1.0
tar: Read 2541 bytes from -

Monday - Thursday I dump to the holding disk then amflush everything
to tape Friday.  Each night I get "taper: FATAL syncpipe_get: r:
unexpected EOF" in my log.  Anyone have any ideas?
