Since I'm no expert in dump/restore so I've followed the steps outlined in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/admin.html#NEW-HUGE-DISK and that has worked well those other times I've tried this. Not this time though. In one of the filesystem moves I loose the protectionbits(*) for everything but the owner. And all directories belongs to root/wheel (not good for /home). And I just can't figure out why that happens. My old setup consist of /, /var and /usr and the new is /, /var, /usr and /usr/home (eg. I'm splitting the old /usr). The process went well for / and /var, but for /usr it didn't. Setting -x for restore should gurantee that date, modes and owner are restored as well. Anyone got a clue to what's up? On a side note, why is dump/restore so dead slow? For a 9GB filesystem it took the better part of 5 hours ... on 2 ATA100-drives.... (*) What are they called on BSD? Protectionsbit, modes or flags?
