DUMP: Cannot open output "/dev/rsa0". DUMP: Do you want to retry the open?: ("yes" or "no") no DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted. Should dump(8) use /dev/sa0 for the rewind device and /dev/nsa0 for no rewind device? Should /etc/rc.devfs create symlinks from rsa0 and nrsa0 for backwards compatibility? -- Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
