Anyway, the 1.0 man >page for restore says: > "A dumpfs(1M) followed by a mkfs and a restore is used to change the size >of a file system." Also, as I recall, the 1.1 manual set didn't include a page (either hardcopy or printed) for dumb.bsd. I think that the documentation refered to dumpfs, so a name change happened somewhere along the line. The file system size/dump/restore comment was made in some obscure place in the manual set, most probably in the Local Sys. Admin Guide... I wish I had kept my 1.1 manual, but I barely have space enuff for my 2.0 manuals :) -- ======================================================================= #include =:^) Jim Jagielski NASA/GSFC, Code 711.1 jim@jagmac2.gsfc.nasa.gov Greenbelt, MD 20771 "Kilimanjaro is a pretty tricky climb.
