This is my dump command,

dump -0ua -f /dev/nrsa0 /

This is the restore command.  I'm using a fresh tape.
What am I doing wrong?  I've not dumped onto any other
tapes.  I presume it's some kind of tape head reading
position thing but I cannot move any further solving this.

root@host /tmp# mt rewind                  
root@host /tmp# restore -i -v -f /dev/nrsa0
Verify tape and initialize maps
Tape block size is 32

Unless you know which volume your file(s) are on you should start
with the last volume and work towards the first.
Specify next volume #:
