I don't know if this will help, but you might try specifying "/" instead of
the block-special device file for "/"; dump should look up what it needs
in /etc/fstab.  It might also work to specify the character device
(/dev/rdsk/dks0d1s0) instead of the block device (/dev/dsk/dks0d1s0),
though I'm not sure about that..
