Is Bacula running? If I remember correctly, some programs _can_ essentially take control of the st0 device, and mt will report busy to avoid having some accidental interference with an ongoing backup. You maybe can find out more with the lsof command. I can never remember the right options, so usually do something like lsof | grep st0 ..jim -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
