[Dump-users] Saving that *last* tape that turns out bad...

[Brent B. <br...@ke...>]

I have been restoring a set of ten tapes, and the last one has proven to 
be in horrible shape.  Any tips on making a 'restore -R' keep going even 
if it wants to die?  I am sure many files could be read if it weren't 
for the tendency it has to "lose sync" and give up.  (Just using '-y' 
doesn't make it determined enough to stop quitting...)
