  When I try to dump a filesystem onto disk, I have problems because:

	A - I can't change the "length" of my virtual tape while
	B - specifying a file to write to....

  See:

: # /sbin/dump -s 100000 -0uf /usr/sd0h.dumpo /dev/rsd0h
: Unknown arguments to dump: /usr/sd0h.dumpo /dev/rsd0h
: # 

  How can I apply those 4 options, s, 0, u, and f?
