Is /mnt a filesystem on its own or just a subdirectory of "/" ? If the latter then it is expected as our dump(8) is not able to dump part of a filesystem. It is a pity... FYI the port of dump/restore made by Rémy Card for Linux is able to dump partial filesystems... -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: There are no limits -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-CURRENT #7: Sat Apr 26 17:13:26 CEST 1997
