Tell me something : your /usr is _not_ on a separate filesystem, isn't it ? dump(8) is working at the inode level so you can backup only full filesystems. Partial tree backups should be made with either tar(1) or cpio(1). The only way to dump partial dumps with dump is by specifying date limits. -- Ollivier ROBERT Ollivier.Robert@keltia.frmug.fr.net A FreeBSD & PERL addict...
