If I dump on amd64 should I be able to
extract files from the dump on i386?
If so, should it be possible to restore a
FreeBSD amd64 dump on OpenBSD i386?
Note there is ticket that may be related:
bin/67723:
restore(8) FreeBSD 5.x restore cannot handle
other platforms/Linux(extfs)-dumps anymore
ref: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=67723&cat=
I thought the dump file format was sacrosanct.
Has there been heresy here?
Thanks,
