This is tangential to the OP's problem, but it depends on what source
you're looking at. That message is probably coming from the 'restore'
OS utility, not amanda.
It looks exactly like the message I get from ufsrestore alone (and when
running amrecover) on Solaris.
Also, the behavior of asking that question and then spending an
additional long time "working on things." My server and tape drive are
fast enough that my wait isn't as long as Joe's, but still... (and I
recall waiting hours on a DDS/3 tape a few years back).
