Hi,
Maybe this is a dumb question, but I was wondering if I could use
dump (and restore) on Windows NTFS partitions.

Say I have a NTFS partition, ad0s1. Could I use:
   # dump -b 4 -f /backups/winxp.dump /dev/ad0s1

Or after a restore, Windows would be able to read the files? What about dd,
with something like:
   # dd if=/dev/ad0s1 of=/backups/winxp.bck bs=4k


Thanks!! =)
