You know as much about this as Amanda does. It's just reporting to you
what the kernel told it. There might be more information in the system
logs, but after you spend days decoding them with the help of hardware
manuals that may or may not even exist, you'll probably just find out the
"media error" bit is set, i.e. not a whole lot more useful information.

I don't know why that would be.

Then maybe it's a controller problem. Or SCSI termination. Or cable.
Or drive. Or the tapes need to be retensioned. There are a million
things that can go wrong with tapes.
