Use the "setdate" command within amrecover (to specify the date as of
which you want the restore done).
If you are not sure of the date, use the "history" command to see the
correspondence between dates and tape labels.
You will probably be well-advised to peform the "mt fsf" command (to
forward space to the proper file number) before telling amrecover to use
the tape in question.
