/mnt/hd/ is the directory of my external hard disk and /mnt/hd/FBSD is the directory of "FBSD" folder within the hard disk.
i created the file root.dump in /mnt/hd/FBSD and i gave the command "dump -0Lauf /mnt/hd/FBSD/root.dump /" the result is: DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Sat Jun 12 02:05:36 2010 > DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch > DUMP: Dumping snapshot of /dev/ad0s3a (/) to /mnt/hd/FBSD/root.dump > DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files] > DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories] > DUMP: estimated 6859984 tape blocks. > DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories] > DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files] > DUMP: write error 4194320 blocks into volume 1 > DUMP: Do you want to restart?: ("yes" or "no") > is it ok? P.S.:my hard disk is a FAT file system not a UFS. _______________________________________________ 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"
