Re: dump image incompatibility


: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 ?

Re: cvsup file for 1.4?


:
:Should we have a "DragonFly-release1_4-supfile" included in
:/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ as we did for 1.2?

    Yup.  I'll take care of it.
