>amcheck never finishes... What version of Amanda?
>chg-zd-mtx works... but it neither finishes, only the -info switch comes back. Get the new version of chg-zd-mtx: ftp://gandalf.cc.purdue.edu/pub/amanda/chg-zd-mtx.sh.in-243 If nothing else, look at the comments in the front of the script for what to do to test your changer and tape drive before you ever try to use Amanda with them. In particular, mount a tape by hand and make sure you can access the drive. Once that's working, check out mtx by itself and make sure it can make the robotics work. Only then should you try to add chg-zd-mtx (and later, the rest of Amanda) into the mix. If you want to try the script itself, save your current chg-zd-mtx.sh.in file, copy the above file into chg-zd-mtx.sh.in, then go up one level and rerun ./configure, then "make", then "make install".
