 Hi,
 
 I remember responding to this but I must have not hit "send" or something
 
 Your diagnosis was correct, we had the wrong partition type set.
 
 However, this requirement is not listed in the dumpon man page.
 
 It is implied in the "implementation notes"; "use one of the system swap 
 devices".  But I had successfully configured the partition in question 
 as a swap device, so it seemed like I'd satisfied that requirement.
 
 It  makes good sense to enforce this restriction.  It'da be great to 
 also have it spelled out explicitly in the man page.
 
 thanks
 danno
