This gets stranget by the minute. I created a tar tape using all defaults on a SNAP-960612 system. I cannot read the tape on the same computer running Linux but I can boot FreeBSD and read the very same tape. What gives? Is the tar on FreeBSD different from tar on Linux in data format. Strange very strange! Bora ps. Both block sizes are apparently 20.
