What are the names of the tape devices under devfs?
troutmask:root[201] dump 3 /var
DUMP: Date of this level 3 dump: Mon Mar 5 17:02:02 2001
DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: Tue Feb 27 07:01:08 2001
DUMP: Dumping /dev/da0s1e (/var) to /dev/rsa0
DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
DUMP: estimated 7211 tape blocks on 0.19 tape(s).
DUMP: Cannot open output "/dev/rsa0".
DUMP: Do you want to retry the open?: ("yes" or "no") no
DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.
Should dump(8) use /dev/sa0 for the rewind device and
/dev/nsa0 for no rewind device? Should /etc/rc.devfs
create symlinks from rsa0 and nrsa0 for backwards compatibility?
