Date: 11 Dec 1995 22:49:01 +0100 Organization: Gottes eigenes Newssystem: INN Lines: 21 Message-ID: <4ai90d$21m@mistral.toppoint.de> NNTP-Posting-Host: mistral.toppoint.de X-Newsreader: NN version 6.5.0 #5 (NOV) Hello, according to the manpage of dump(1) it should be possible to enter a command like dump 0uf - /usr/home | whatever... but I only could get the following command to do anything: dump 0uf - /dev/sd0s1f | whatever... So I question myself and you, is it just possible to dump an entire device or is there a way to specify a single directory?
