No, I tried it from the 'settape' command. From the command-line it
works .. sort of.

I had to run amrecover twice. Once to find out which 'tape' it wanted.
Next to run it with the right '-d' pointing to that tape. Is it
possible to redesign the disk-backup thing to allow the tape to be
selected during the amrecover process without running it twice?

Thanks,
