Help!
I am having some difficulty restoring a tape backup to a fresh install of 8.rc7 or 8.rc6.
The backup was make using 8.rc6's automated tape backup process which reported, via email, what appears a successful backup.

Restore from tape via the "backup restore" seems to do nothing as the only activity from the tape drive is 4 or 5 seconds of activity (probably doing a rewind on a rewound tape). Nothing else seems to happens as the tape drive remains silent and there is minimal hd activity.
/root is replaced with the copy from the backup, but nothing else is.
/tmp/extract/nnnn reports the directories expected, such as
./home/e-smith
./etc/... multiple config ditectories
./root
Whay am I doing wrong?
Thanks
