actually, i found how to put the desired tape into the active slot of the changer. But when i do "amrestore /dev/nst0 lollipop /files1" I get this:

amrestore: missing file header block
amrestore:   2: skipping zoo._.20070419.1.1
amrestore: missing file header block
amrestore:   6: skipping marlin._var.20070419.1.1
amrestore:  10: reached end of information

What now?

I am trying to restore a folder from a tape in a previous cycle (last night had a level 0 of the disk, but the folder was deleted prior). I have a tape changer and read that amrestore doesnt work with tape changers. My dumptypes are gnutar, so I probably can't use amrecover. Is this correct? When I tried to run it, it said "amrecover: Unexpected end of file, check amindexd*debug on server localhost".

I've looked all over and can't seem to find what I need (possibly because I've never recovered before and don't know what to look for).
