Remember Dan Tappan's wonderful macdump utility which automatically
backs up your hard disc to UNIX?

I cannot get it to work on a MacSI running System 7.0.  It works on
a a MacIIx (with virtual memory, no 32-bit address of course).  But
on a MacSI (no virtual memory and no 32-bit address), it says:

Doing full dump to inei-Macintosh HD.FULL
Dump device at 23/50:40
macdump: error on request to mac: 50733
macdump: Failed to dump Macintosh HD. Response:

and no more.  I have macdump in the System Folder itself (not lower)
and an alias of it to Extensions folder.

Any ideas anyone?  Dan are you there?
