Date: Mon, 21 Oct 1996 22:36:44 GMT Organization: Teleport - Portland's Public Access (503) 220-1016 Lines: 15 Message-ID: <54gtkc$svv@nadine.teleport.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: pnw.foss.com X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 A couple of questions from a newbie: How do I skip from a dump of one filesystem to the next one on tape? e.g. I've done a dump of wds0a(/) then another of wd0s1e(/usr) Is there a parameter to label the dump so I can skip to it with what I assume is an mt command???? Also, what is the meaning of the number in parens when referring to a unix command, e.g. dump(8). Is this is version of the program? Thanks. Julie Schneider Foss Maritime
