I have some old backups tapes from a sun that no longer exists. I have a sgi Irix 5.3 that I want to put them on. So I can burn them to a cd. Is there a way to do this with dd or something like that? the comand used to make them was:

ufsdump 0ubf 112 sunburn:/dev/rmt/0cn /dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s0

She said that "I used ufsrestore -vis # (# was the number of files to skip) & then you cd to the correct directory for the files you are looking for. Once there submit an extract comand."


Any help or Ideas would be helpful.
Thanks
