hmm.. ok Im must be missing somthing simple here..
If I do a mt rewoffl

It ejects the tape from the drive, but the it stays with the picker
sittung right in front of the drive..  trying chio move drive 0 slot 1
gives the below.. do I not need the mt reoffl first to eject the tape from
the drive?

operator@hades [5:06pm] /hold > chio move drive 0 slot 1
chio: /dev/ch0: CHIOMOVE: Device busy

I appreciate your help dan.
