I get a bunch of "truncating inode number" messages during backup process. What that means? How could it be corrected? Sorry if this is a silly question :-) I do the folloing: %cd / %find -d . | cpio -ocvB > /dev/rst0 It seems only long path/name entries cause that message. Can anyone explain? Thanks. ------------------------------------------- Serge splyaski@cmp.com
