Carl,
You have three file systems dump into one tape. You cannot just use cd /usr
from the root file system to get the files under the /usr. If you want to
restore /usr, you have to forward the tape to the second file. You can either
use:
/usr/bin/mt -f /dev/nrmt0h fsf 1 (skip the first file)
/usr/sbin/restore -i
or simply use:
/usr/sbin/restore -ifs /dev/rmt0h 2 (restore 2'nd file)
