i've been consistently getting those with every single bacula operation on 
my FC5 box (running the storage director) since i upgraded the kernel from 
kernel-2.6.16-1.2111_FC5 to kernel-2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 (specifically, i keep 
getting "ERR=block.c:945 Read error at file:blk 0:0 on device "Drive0" 
(/dev/nst0). ERR=Device or resource busy."  i confess that i haven't 
rebooted with the old kernel to check things still work, but upgrading 
from bacula 1.38.8 to 1.38.9 (on the sd box) hasn't helped.

mtx-changer still works, and when bacula's stopped i can still dd data off 
the tape.  can anyone shed any light on why this might be happening?
