(Silly subject line, I know)

Dump is returning all kinds of errors when we back up a 3GB partition.
The OS is 2.0.5.  That data seems to be fine, as far as I can tell,
but the errors are alarming.

About 4500 lines of:

DUMP: bread: lseek fails

Is it because of the size of the file system?

Thanks!
