I have been trying to extract Landsat satellite image data
from an 8mm tape that originated from a company called
EOSAT. I am using am using a SGI R4000 and IRIX release
4.0.5. I have had no success using TAR, Restore, BRU
or CPIO. There should be several separate files on tape; an
ascii header and then possibly a number of (I think) binary
files (possibly each with their own header file).

Try ansitape. I know that DTED & DFAD tapes from DMA are stored
in that format (like on a vax - yuck!). I think you also will
need to use /dev/tapens. ansitape came with my 4.0.5 but don't
know which subsystem (eoe[12].whatever).
Hope that solves your problem.
