..and/or it is some other hardware problem, maybe you also should test 
your memory with memtest or something similiar? I'm using dump/restore 
very frequently and I had never seen such problem. Neither on -RELAESE, 
-STABLE, nor -CURRENT.
So I think you should make sure that your problem is not 
hardware/filesystem dependent before you point dump/restore as a couse 
of the problem. Peter Jeremy already gives you good hints to do that.
