but I only could get the following command to do anything:

So I question myself and you, is it just possible to
dump an entire device or is there a way to specify
a single directory?
Kai
You can dump an entire device as follows.
# dump 0uf - /dev/rsd0s1f | whatever...

You must specify a raw device.
