Hi gurus, Thanks to: dersmythe Bob Hurtin Bertrand Ric Anderson Roy Vosberg Bill R. Williams Hurtin Actually hit the nail... The solution is: dd if=/dev/rmt/0 bs=256k |tar tvf - And the way to realise if you need to use the conv=swab or not is: dd if=/dev/rmt/0 bs=256k count=1 of=/tmp/file and then file /tmp/file I should have known that... Anyway, THANKS A LOT!!
