dump works on file systems, not individual files or directories. if home is something mounted separately, then you run a dump for that. Same for /usr. If /usr is just a directory under root (/) and not a separate file system, then taking a dump of / will get /usr. I don't have a list of your mounted filesystems. ////jerry > > can you help me with the syntax of the dump command? > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
