Neither.  This is the equivalent interactive command:

  /sbin/restore xbf 2 - /amanda_dev.init

So start with that (you need to give it the image on stdin).  It should
give you the same "Block size must be a positive integer" error.
Then see if you can figure out what it's whining about.  It might be
it wants a larger block size (e.g. '4').  Or it might not like the 'b'
(and '2') option at all.  Or it might want more parameters.

What OS are you running on the client?  What type of dump/restore/fstype
(i.e.  "plain", "vdump", "xfsdump", etc)?
