I must conclude that two of you are right:
        It looks like your dump file is corrupt. Sorry, bad luck.

I havn't made the dump myself and therefore don't know why it isn't
good.

Other suggestions are:

- How about trying ufsrestore tf ufsdump.4.c0t2d0s7 just to see if
  there's anything in that file in the first place

There was.

- ufsrestore ifs 1 ufsdump.4.c0t2d0s7 to skip?
  If so, did you try skipping the the first file on the tape, i.e.,
  ufsrestore isf 1 <dumpfile_name>? This was what I did to get around
  this problem on my system, although I was using dump/restore.

It didn't do any difference

Yours,
Ulla Fischer
