Hi,

I have a new laptop with dual boot (Win98 and SuSE Linux 7.0). I'm
trying to backup this client with amanda version 2.4.1p1. The linux
side
itself is working excellent; but I would also like to backup the /win
partition where the windows file system is mounted. I get the
following
message in sendsize.debug:

...
calculating for amname '/win', dirname '/win'
sendsize: getting size via dump for /win level 0
sendsize: running "/sbin/dump 0sf 1048576 - /dev/hda1"

  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Thu Nov  9 00:05:56 2000
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch

.....
(no size line match in above dump output)
.....
asking killpgrp to terminate
sendsize: pid 4458 finish time Thu Nov  9 00:05:57 2000

Looks like the vfat filesystem is not recognized by amanda. Is there a
way to get this working?

Thanks for any responses,
Urte
