I'm having trouble extracting files from a bru tape. The following are commands that I've tried and the respective outputs.


will.rlee 224> bru -vgf /dev/nrtape

will.rlee 226> bru -evtf /dev/nrtape
e 26k of 28k [1] ./kj
e 2k of 30k [1] ./GB1.bru
bru: 1 volume(s), 2 files, 16 archive blocks, 32 Kbytes
bru: warning - missing archive header block; starting at volume 1
bru: c => continue q => quit r => reload s => fork shell [default: q] >> q

What else can I try?

NAME
tcopy - copy a magnetic tape SYNOPSIS
tcopy source [destination] DESCRIPTION
The tcopy utility copies the magnetic tape mounted on the tape drive specified by the source argument. The only assumption made about the contents of a tape is that there are two tape marks at the end. When only a source drive is specified, tcopy scans the tape, and displays information about the sizes of records and tape files. If a des- tination is specified, tcopy makes a copies the source tape onto the destination tape, with blocking preserved. As it copies, tcopy pro- duces the same output as it does when only scanning a tape. The tcopy utility requires the use of Berkeley-compatible device names. For example, example% tcopy /dev/rmt/1b /dev/rmt/2b ATTRIBUTES
