Volume is not in dump format

I see the tape has the image I want. I usually use this
command:
amrestore -p (drive) aimserver /dev/hda2 | ufsrestore ivf -
Is the error telling me that linux has the compressed the
image a different way. This is the line from disklist
aimserver /dev/hda2 linux-tar # /usr
^^^
There's your hint.
amrestore -p (drive) aimserver /dev/hda2 | tar xf -
