I'm running FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE. This is the shell file I've used to dump my disks since FreeBSD 2.x: # dump 64k blocksize 2441406 1k blocks per 2.5Gb Exabyte 8200 tape /sbin/dump 0ubBf 64 2441406 /dev/nrsa0 / /sbin/dump 0ubBf 64 2441406 /dev/nrsa0 /var /sbin/dump 0ubBf 64 2441406 /dev/rsa0 /usr Suddenly, under 4.2-RELEASE, it doesn't work. The second dump gets an error as soon as it tries to write to the tape, which should start a new tape file after the first dump: DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon May 7 20:33:18 2001 DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch DUMP: Dumping /dev/da0s2e (/var) to /dev/nsa0 DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files] DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories] DUMP: estimated 8354 tape blocks on 0.00 tape(s). DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories] DUMP: write error 64 blocks into volume 1 DUMP: Do you want to restart?: ("yes" or "no") no DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted. Can anybody tell me what the heck is going on here? My / and /var are so small that I'm going to waste 99% of two tapes, dumping one file system per tape.
