It does look like the problem is with the tape drive, but that's after it
working fine at first. It successfully opens the drive and determines
(correctly) that the volume in the drive is an unlabeled tape. As a result?
the tape drive is opened in a read-only state -- or maybe that's because it
start by trying to read the existing label and you only need read-only for that.
