:Hello.
:Since the size of ino_t has changed, dump files taken on 1.2.x-RELEASE
:(and on FreeBSD-4.x too?) won't be restored on 1.3+ anymore, because
:it looks at a wrong place for the magic. In fact, our restore program
:is probably incompatible with any of dump files taken on FreeBSD boxes.
:Is anyone working on this problem?
Since nobody reported it until now, nobody knew there was a problem
.
dump/restore are supposed to be using ufs1_ino_t, which is 32 bits.
Do you know which structure the program is getting confused about ?
