Subject:   Problems with dump(8) on one partition
Message-ID:  <200007241617.e6OGHQU10886@ptavv.es.net>

I am unable to dump one of my partitions. I have dumped it several
times in the past, but it now fails immediately with the error:
  DUMP: bad sblock magic number

I have no trouble mounting and/or using the volume. I just can't dump
it. I did a full fsck on the volume and it finds no errors.

Any ideas what could be going on? I get nervous when I can't keep a
good backup.

Thanks,
