Steven,
Maybe your disk was corrupted before that backup was done, and the
backup is corrupted.
Try to restore from an older backup.

The file is restored:

but is not a text file:
file process.sh
process.sh: data

The problem happens on numerous files, it's not just this one.
Any idea on this? The disk failed and this restore is quite
urgent. The command tar --version returns tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1 and
I'm using amanda 3.3.7.
Thanks,
Steve
