Greetings:

I have FreeBSD up and running - nice and solid I might add. Good 
job!

I am trying to learn how to recover from a "complete and total" 
system failure (I have some "lovely" hardware - bad hdd and 
power problems).

Dump and Restore seem to do the job but from what the man page 
says - it is supposed to back up all file systems (by reading 
the fstab file)
ie dump 0 / backs up only /dev/rsda1 but not /usr or /var etc... 

I am working on documenting an old char. based app. I'd like to 
do screen captures and shove the menu structure into html for an 
online help - separate and distinct from the app itself. 

Does anyone know of a dos like "print screen" to file utility?

I am not running X. only the char stuff.
