Hello!

I am trying to rdump three filesystems from one 1000/266 to another which
has a tape drive. I'd like to rdump exerything onto one 4mm tape. So, if
I execute these commands:

rdump -0 -u -b 32 -f fiona:/dev/nrmt1h /
rdump -0 -u -b 32 -f fiona:/dev/nrmt1h /usr
rdump -0 -u -b 32 -f fiona:/dev/nrmt1h /usr/local
rdump -0 -u -b 32 -f fiona:/dev/nrmt1h /staff

It should do this, right?


If I try to restore files, say from /usr/local (even on the machine with
the tape drive), I type:

mt -f /dev/nrmt1h fsf 3
restore -i /dev/nrmt1h

Executing an `ls` at this point shows me the root filesystem.

So my question ? Is what I'm trying to do with rdump possible?

thanks for any help!!

David
