QUESTION:  What causes the error msg "Internal Error 6 rc=8
during a backup operation?

ANSWER:  It occurs when the server displays something like
"Change the tape" or "Insert a tape" on the LCD.  There is a
short time spurt when the tape drive is performing a "rewind"
just to find out if a tape has been inserted, etc.  The tape
active light should go on and then off for about 1 second.  If
you pop the tape out just after the light goes on (before it goes
off), it will cause this error message.

We believe this is fixed in Backup 1.2.  Howewver, these spurts
only occur once every ten seconds, so this error shouldn't happen
often with earlier revisions.
