Problem with i.tape.mss

[Laxmi Prasad Musunur]

	We're trying to extract images from MSS tapes (6250 bpi).
if we enter start and end values as 
	rows:1-2984
	cols:1-3548

	rows 1-1491 are extracted and then it asks for the  TAPE 2 to be mounted.
But if we run i.tape.other  we can extract all the rows (hence the complete image).
Can someone tell us the reason behind this ?

	Thankyou,
