X-Point-of-View: Gravity is myth, - the earth sucks. X-Useless-Header: Look ma! It's a # sign! Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk I reported bin/4683 PR on October, 3, 1997, it's still open and I didn't get any idea myself aswell. As it's written there, the workaround is -S [g,gnu]tar option. Which is "hadle sparse files efficiently" - dump can't. This was checked on 2.1.5, 2-2-some-beta, 3-0-some-snap .
