If you installed KDE there is KDat, which is a tar-based tape archiver. 
It appears as part
of the standard tools with most distros which include the KDE desktop 
(not just Fedora).
Extract from the KDat Help:

"Features:
Simple graphical interface to local filesystem and tape contents.
Multiple archives on the same physical tape.
Complete index of archives and files is stored on local hard disk.
Selective restore of files from an archive.
Backup profiles for frequently used backups."

cheers,

Elton ;-)
