Hello,
I want to backup datas from my RaQ4 to DLT tape.
The drive is connected :
# tar -cvf /dev/st0 /path_to_tar
is OK.
Now I want to have multiple backups on the same tape.
For the restore, I have to choose which backup to untar.
What is the command to "rewind/forward" and choose the correct "tar" to
restore ? (I tried to use "mt -f", but it does not exist on my Cobalts....)
