Schmitt) Newsgroups: comp.unix.aux Subject: Backup on Syquests Summary: Has anyone done this? Keywords: SyQuest Removeable dump.bsd backup Message-ID: <1991May16.192014.28227@chinet.chi.il.us> Date: 16 May 91 19:20:14 GMT Sender: setech!henry@vax.cs.pitt.edu Organization: Ha! you've got to be kidding! Lines: 12 Has anyone successfully used dump.bsd to back up a partition over 40Mb onto syquest carts? Using the size option doesn't seem to work. The program will dump for a while, then stop accessing the cartridge, but continues to dump! According to the man page, giving a size should cause dump to stop and ask for another cartridge. Please send me mail about this at setech!henry@vax.cs.pitt.edu as I'm no longer following this newsgroup. Thanx!!
