That's a good idea.  I increased the timeout in the changer script.  But 
in my experience it doesn't take nearly 5 minutes for this to happen.

The correct tape was loaded into the drive by the changer.   It seems 
like the bacula process that does the loading died for some reason 
(after requesting the load) and so it timed out.  At least that is how I 
interpret the error message, but maybe the message is giving me the 
wrong impression.
