I don't think so. If this were the case, it would fail immediately
whereas I see may files which are correctly restored. On the other
hand the last dump was not done on my DAT, but on a file on another
partition. And this one is broken too.
There were no problems with my /usr partition, maybe because it is
smaller. I will try to restore again and check where it begins to
extract bad data.
