Oh, wait! after that error, it left me running btape.... I'm going to
continue with my testing suite.
 
Thanks for the help!

After editing my bacula-*.conf files, I get this same error: 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bacula/bin# ./btape -c bacula-sd.conf /dev/st0

This command gives an immediate response.... 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mt -f /dev/st0 stat 
SCSI 2 tape drive: 
File number=-1, block number=-1, partition=0. 
Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x0 (default).

mtx is only for the changer resource and not the tape drive. Although they
are part of one unit they are completely different devices. Use the mt
command to find the tape drive.

 mt -f /dev/nst0 stat
