comment Restore old SunOS tapes
handling a tape drive is quite different from extracting files. The magic isn't in the "t" flag, but rather in knowing at which point of the tape the current reading process is starting. It doesn't help to use a non-rewinding device to skip to the desired file, if the tar used afterwards uses the rewinding device, thus leaving the tape at 0 after reading.
