Ahh ok that makes sense.  I have to do a mt rewoffl to get the tape out of
the drive then apparently it just sits in the picker.  How do I move the
picker to put the tape back in the holder once I do that then I should be
able to do a 'chio move slot 2 drive 0' to put the tape is slot 2 into the
drive.  Ideally, Id like amanda to do all the necessary moves etc but I
have failed to this point. :(

thanks much!
