Subject: Can't get restore to read dump'ed tape

Hello,

I'm having trouble getting "restore" to work on a DAT tape that should contain
a level 0 dump.  I have restored other tapes but not from that system.  I get
for example:
-------
# restore tvf /dev/rst0
Verify tape and initialize maps
tape read error: Undefined error: 0
#
-------
Tape drive is HP1536A (I think).  Any ideas before I declare the tape dead and
move on?  Thanks.

Sam
