I don't know if I'm leaving something out of the process or what. Hope someone can help out here.. Here is what I am doing.......... mt -f /dev/nrsa0 fsf 2 # # restore -i restore > add somesource.c restore > extract You have not read any tapes yet. 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 #: At this point I just ^c to get the heck out. I enter a 2 hoping that would do the trick but it does nothing. Any help would be wonderful..
