dump. the model of consistency. you missed the s 100000 option. generally, when dumping...
Linux: [r]dump 0usf 1000000 [output] [partition] Solaris: ufsdump 0ubf 1000000 [output] [partition] Ultrix: [r]dump 0ousf 1000000 [output] [partition] OSF/1: vdump 0usf 1000000 [output] [partition] (incompatible format, advfs, not r-dumpable) [r]dump 0usf 1000000 [output] [partition] (std format, non-advfs) Others: [r]dump 0usf 1000000 [output] [partition]
Under all of the above, you can omit the 's' and 1000000 if you output to standard output ("-").
Don't you just love consistency? (oh, linux is separate from "others" above since it is /sbin/dump not /etc/dump, I missed all the weird and wonderful locations people choose to put dump from the above list)
rdump is of course a horrible thing, dump|ssh is far better/faster/more likely to succeed with current ext2 dump (rdump takes longer and hence more often gets confused by changes to the fs while dumping).
